Get Go Games

As a Hong Kong artist based in Berlin for over 10 years, Friendly depicts her memories of Hong Kong from her illustrations to graffiti works. In Get-go Games, she combines her interpretations with 10 original games from Hong Kong, to share a collective game memory with audiences overseas. She redesigned these games and invited audiences to be players. By way of her collection to arouse the playfulness within adults, as well as to enjoy the authentic Hong Kong childhood.
