Tai Kwun Contemporary presents Stay Connected: Supplying the Globe, the second chapter of Stay Connected: Art and China Since 2008. More than 70 artworks from over 40 participating artists re-examine China’s role as the world’s centre for the production and logistics that sustain modern life. They give insights into the individual stories, family histories, and lesser-seen places impacted by globalisation and by China’s unprecedented economic growth in recent decades.

Across two interconnected chapters, Stay Connected: Art and China Since 2008 offers a panoramic presentation of contemporary art addressing social realities of twenty-first-century China. Supplying the Globe shifts our attention from the digital world to the material one, while continuing the human-centred approach of the first chapter.
