Time Out says

This project asks you to walk, linger and occasionally double back, spotting images tucked onto ageing facades, shopfronts and shrines across the Chinese quarter. They land like visual interruptions, half-glimpsed, then strangely familiar, as if the neighbourhood has been quietly carrying them for years. Photographs settle among old printing houses and long-shuttered newspaper offices, places where ink stains and memory still clings to brickwork. People and architecture are treated with equal care, each frame echoing the slow persistence of the area itself. Seeing the work means moving at street speed, letting traffic sounds and incense smoke fill the gaps between images. It becomes less about looking and more about paying attention. The walk confirms what locals already know: the old quarter isn’t frozen in time, it’s still speaking, if you’re willing to listen.

Until February 8. Free. Xing Zhong Yuan, 7am-midnight
