Illustrated Dictionary exhibition


Diccionario

Diccionario
[diktjo’ narjo] Nm. Dictionary. The dictionary is a collaborative art project where people from different backgrounds and nationalities contribute and define words in Spanish or English. All of them were given the freedom to alter the strict definition of each word establishing by the way of individual thoughts, experiences, doubts, jokes, differences, eruditions.
The project humorously intends to show the interpretations and misinterpretations which one is exposed when one is learning a new language, also questioning the idea of education.



The opening of the “Illustrated Spanish/English.English/Spanish dictionary”, a work in progress, will be held on 8th September from 8pm. at Kapok- B/F 9 Dragon Road, Tin Hau Temple Road, Tin Hau, Hong Kong. The exhibition runs from 8th until 23rd of September.
