Myths, legends, fictions, stories, histories—as many narratives as possible are required to define the contours of a new territory. In the case of Hong Kong Is Land, the pleasure in constructing new maps and atlases is infinite. Compressed between sea and mountains, Hong Kong appears as a chaotic, hybrid, and colored crystallization with specific density. Informed by a complex geography, the idea of concentric growth, of continuous spread, is replaced by a non-linear development of hyper dense cores co-existing with the natural landscape. Hong Kong Is Land proposes to add eight new artificial islands to the existing landscape of 263 islands. In that way it addresses various needs and features of prevailing contexts and communities in the near future. Those artificial lands also provide distinctive hubs for tourism. Yet they cannot be recognised as islands nor generate maritime zones. More than a response to an unbalanced geography, the eight corresponding scenarios can be interpreted as a new language in which to promote universal values. At the center of this project, beginning in Hong Kong territorial waters, there is a global awareness of specific contemporary issues that aims to reach other parts of the world.
