In-Situ!
is
a
work-in-progress
art
project
that
involved
different
groups
and
artists
living
and
working
on
site
at
Oi!
for
80
days.
The
art
space
was
opened
up
for
visitors
to
access
individual
art
units
for
free,
allowing
them
to
strike
up
spontaneous
dialogues
and
explore
different
traces
of
the
lives.
In
such
ways,
people
could
re-examine
their
own
lives
from
artistic
perspectives
and
thus
rediscover
the
neglected
scenery
of
their
personal
journeys.
In-Situ!
reinstated
the
once
thriving
life
tools
in
North
Point
to
create
‘manufacturing
in-situ'.
In
the
industrial
age,
factory
workers
repeated
the
same
processes
day
in
and
day
out
on
assembly
lines
making
these
products,
lacking
diversity,
imagination
or
individuality.
Today,
however,
there
is
a
growing
desire
for
the
human
touch
as
digitisation
is
applied
more
widely,
as
it
serves
to
fulfil
the
lack
of
humanity
in
the
globalising
economy.
With
the
power
of
art,
In-Situ!
transformed
ordinary
routines
into
a
commune
of
life
experiences
and
knowledge
sharing,
strengthened
the
cohesion
among
local
citizens.
Everything
in
life,
from
what
we
eat
and
see,
to
write
and
talk,
even
to
plant,
can
be
a
medium
of
spiritual
fulfilment.
In
this
studio,
artists
and
organisations
explored
spiritual
fulfilment
and
looked
for
beauty
in
life
through
books,
food,
trees,
letters
and
stories.
Material
possessions
are
necessities
in
life,
yet
we
can
choose
from
those
possessions
what
we
really
need.

into
the
ordinary
and
connect
with
life.
