Wipping out the white
Wiping out the White is a multimedia project depicting the 21 July 2019 mob attack in Yuen Long, Hong Kong. An armed, masked mob in white shirts attacked pro-democracy protesters, journalists, and citizens at Yuen Long station, causing widespread fear and chaos. Inspired by the Hong Kong government's attempts to erase the attackers' presence, the project includes a publication and first-person POV animation.
The publication features interviews with victims, attackers, law enforcers, and supporters, offering diverse perspectives. The animation uses invisible figures and audio to recreate the attack, allowing the audience to experience the event's horror and its lasting impact on Hong Kong's political and social landscape.
