    Viewing from the castle of Arraiolos, a dry, inland village in the flat Alentejo, a ‘sea’ slowly emerges after dusk: Houses becomes a pier, light towers, islands; cars becomes boats, ferries, cargo ships . . . a black, boundless sea.  Evidently it is the sea of my city.

    While surprised by my apparent homesickness or loneliness, I share the imagination of the view, my experience in Arraiolos, sceneries of Hong Kong through an audio walk.  The walk starts shortly after sunset and ends when the sky is totally dark.

    The walk was first launched in Mid-Autumn Festival, a festival in Hong Kong for moon appreciation and reunion.  It is now disseminated with a map in different locations in Arraiolos from the end of October 2016.

    葡萄牙的阿夏若洛(Arraiolos)位處內陸,地勢平坦,夏日乾罕,四周一片金黃。日落時分,由阿夏若洛的城堡往外望,景色慢慢化成一片「海」:屋恍若碼頭、燈塔、島嶼;車恍若小艇、渡輪、郵輪 . . . . . . 漆黑無邊的海。這 根 本 是香港的海。

    我為自己疑似的思鄉和寂寞而驚訝。我將城堡景觀的幻想、在阿夏若洛的經歷,以及香港的景致,以聲音和讀白編織成一個聲音漫步。漫步圍繞城堡,始於日落,終於天色全暗,使參加者感受景色變化。

    聲音漫步首次於2016年中秋節舉行,一個賞月和團圓的節日。現時,作品以地圖的方式,於阿夏若洛不同地點派發。
