…ex’d…seeks to open a window of understanding into the Hong Kong protest movements as processes of communication, mutual trust and support, as well as of protest and resistance.

The artists of …ex’d… have chosen to erase their own names in an inverse gesture of protest. Let the works speak for themselves.”

The eleven of them consists of officials from the People's Republic of China and Hong Kong.

The Treasury is currently sanctioning Carrie Lam, Chris Tang, Stephen Lo, John Lee Ka-chiu, Teresa Cheng, Erick Tsang, Xia Baolong, Zhang Xiaoming, Luo Huining, Zheng Yanxiong, and Eric Chan.

[Demonstration in Berlin: Protest Against Political Censorship in Hong Kong]

Recently, there are lots of things happening in Hong Kong, including the arrest of the owner of the press Apple Daily, Jimmy Lai. The repression from China is always getting stronger but we will not be silent.

Tomorrow in Berlin, we will gather under the World Clock at Alexanderplatz to voice out for the Hongkongers. Keep in mind that the new law is extraterritorial and they have already put a warrant on Ray Wong. So please bring your umbrellas and bring your masks with you. If you want to help setting up, come around at 13:30!

Always remember, an Apple a Day, keeps the Tyranny away!

See you~
