The
ocean
and
the
land
in
front
of
the
main
building
of
Oi!
were
once
connected
at
the
beginning
of
the
20th
century.
Since
the
reclamation
works
started
in
1930s,
the
shoreline
has
been
ceaselessly
moving
outward,
resulting
in
the
expansion
of
Hong
Kong
Island.
Fortress
Hill
was
originally
named
"East
Hill".
Its
name
dates
back
to
when
the
British
forces
stationed
there
and
built
battery
barracks
in
order
to
protect
Victoria
Harbour.
Oi!
thusly
witnessed
the
centennial
vicissitude
of
Hong
Kong
Island.
This
installation
Over
the
Ocean,
Over
the
Mountain
inhabited
at
the
adjoining
point
of
Oi!
and
its
new
extension,
carrying
the
origin
story
of
this
land.
Visitors
on
one
hand
could
walk
back
and
forth
through
the
intertwining
geometric
space,
as
if
it
is
a
time
tunnel
that
leads
us
to
the
past.
On
the
other
hand,
the
use
of
architectural
material
insinuated
the
amplification
of
the
new
extension
of
Oi!,
allowing
Oi!
to
look
into
the
past
as
well
as
all
future
possibilities.
To
further
encourage
ingenuity
of
the
community,
Oi!
invited
Hong
Kong
Circus
and
sound
artist
Tim
Chan
along
with
his
team
respectively
to
intervene
in
the
art
installation
Over
the
Ocean,
Over
the
Mountain
with
contemporary
circus
acts
and
sound
art
creation.
