HKWALLS: Transforming Hong Kong’s Urban Landscape with Jason Dembski

This week, we meet with Jason Dembski, co-founder of HKWALLS, as we explore the vibrant world of street art transforming Hong Kong. Discover how a passion project initiated in 2014 has grown into a significant cultural force, bringing local and international artists together to adorn the city with stunning murals, and continues to innovate and inspire in Hong Kong’s ever-evolving landscape.

In this episode, Jason shares the journey from humble beginnings to a celebrated annual festival that captivates the city during Art Month. Learn about the challenges and triumphs of organizing such an event, the changing perceptions around street art, and the exciting addition of HKWALLS Rooms this year at PMQ. We discuss the intricate process behind gaining wall permissions, artist selections, and the importance of community engagement.
