Here are all the artworks and exhibitions to see at galleries around Wan Chai and Eastern District
March is art month in Hong Kong, and the city’s cultural scene has collectively put it best foot forward. With coronavirus restrictions eased at last, internationally renowned artists, curators, and collectors are flying into the special administrative region for Art Basel and Art Central, as well as to see some local cultural action. This is also coinciding with all sorts of venues opening new exhibitions this month, including galleries, museums, and art spaces.
With so much happening and so many shows and exhibitions to see, you may be wondering what’s most worth your time to visit. So we’ve organised Tatler’s top picks by district, and here are the one you should check out in the Wan Chai and Eastern district.

Para Site
Signals…瞬息 is first exhibition that Para Site’s new director Billy Tang put together along with curator Celia Ho. Participating artists include Christine Sun Kim, Candice Lin & P. Staff, Wing Po So, Tang Kwok Hin and others. The exhibition explores “signals” as modes of kinetic art, communication, actions, and interventions to create a chain of reactions. As such, the artists use sensory cues including sound, smell, movement and smoke to explore complex issues related to dispersed communities, migratory flows, and the intersection of technology, science, and architecture.
Date: March 18 to September 29
Address: 22/F, Wing Wah Industrial Building, 677 King’s Rd, Quarry Bay.
