As part of the Hin Between Festival, this photographic intervention, ๐ ๐๐ฒ๐ฐ๐ฎ๐ฑ๐ฒ ๐๐ถ๐๐ต ๐๐ถ๐ป surveys ten years of revitalization at Hin Bus Depot, framing an inquiry into temporality, site, and memory. Since January 2014, Thum Chia Chieh has documented the space with sustained attention, producing a body of work that becomes an archival record and aesthetic investigation. This longitudinal practice reveals incremental shifts in materiality, usage, and social relations, rendering visible the subtle processes of transformation that might otherwise remain obscured within the flow of quotidian experience.For this exhibition, selected photographs are printed and installed in situ at the precise locations they originally depicted, generating a visual palimpsest that stages the co-presence of past and present. This juxtaposition activates questions of preservation, erasure, and urban agency: how photographic index and site reciprocally inform one another; how collective memory is materially inscribed in architecture and program; and how the ostensibly stable object of the โ๐ด๐ช๐ต๐ฆโ is continually reconstituted through practice. Visitors are invited to negotiate these layered temporalities, to read the prints as both documentary evidence and critical dispositif, thereby attending to the ways histories of place are produced and reimagined.
