"HK Urban Canvas" is a community art project that enhances community inclusion and highlights unique aspects of local culture through art and oral history. Launched in 2017, the project has created 83 shopfront shutter artworks in 9 districts to celebrate Hong Kong’s local history and collective memories. The “HK Urban Canvas” mobile app features 9 districts, 14 tour routes, local shop stories and images of all shutter artworks produced since the project started. The app is supported by GPS location that makes it easy to locate check points. It also has an augmented reality (AR) function that allows users to view the artworks any time, even when the shops are open and the shutters are not visible.
