MILL6 Heritage Program Public Forum

MILL6 is delighted to invite you to our Heritage Program’s inaugural public event ‘Archiving The Mills through the lens’ which takes place on Sunday 26 June.

This is an artist-initiated project that captures the transition and memories of The Mills during the heritage conservation project commenced in 2015. With each of their artistic practice and approach, six photographers, anothermountainman, Kitty Chou, South Ho, Law Yuk Mui, So Hing Keung and Tse Ming Chong, from Hong Kong have produced images of various aesthetics and stories around the engrained legacy at MILL6’s future home, The Mills (Nan Fung Textile Mill) in Tsuen Wan. Their works have contributed to our continuous research, study and archive of MILL6.

As part of our Heritage Program, the event will also showcase some precious photographic and architectural documentations of The Mills during its active years of textile production. MILL6 values this chance to share with you a lesser known aspect of The Mills.
