【英國展覽香港不自殺聲明2019】
【手足生活支援平台—驛站】

我不會自殺，因為我必須等到敵人隕落那天。

不自殺聲明，是過去式也是將來式。
2019我們寫下不自殺聲明，2021，我們努力生存下去鬥長命。

Athena’s Army將於9月10至19日舉行《香港不自殺聲明2019》展覽，展覽以文獻紀錄形式展示，並由加拿大、英國等地方的藝術工作者以不同形式的作品回應主題，令更多人知道香港的自由是用生命來換取的。

同期，Athena’s Army將推出生活支援平台— 驛站。

無論過去兩年在香港還是現在流亡在外的日子，支援手足一向是一件很重要的事情，為了更有效協調資源，助流亡手足安頓離鄉別井的生活，亦令移英的香港人能夠更容易做到資源共享，守望相助，Athena’s Army即將成立英國生活支援平台— 驛站。

驛站將提供家長屋、家長車配對、專欄、政治庇護諮詢等8項服務。

黎明來到之前，讓我們照顧好自己，照顧好自己人，活著看敵人隕落。

【I won’t suicide declarations, 2019 Hong Kong】
【Athena’s Army support platform 】

// I will not commit suicide, because I have to wait until the day the enemy falls. //

The exhibition will take place in Manchester city centre on 10-19 September,2021. It contains “I won’t suicide” declarations from 2019 Hong Kong protests, in the format of written documents and videos. While each letter reveals the determination of the writer to protect his/her hometown, it also is an indicator of how oppressive and brutal the governing body was. The video documentation of the arrested protesters declaring such at the protesting sites, will also help audience members to have a more realistic understanding of Hong Kong protesters’ situations in 2019.

Besides the documentation, we have invited contemporary artists and art groups from Hong Kong, United Kingdom and Canada. Their work will respond to the exhibition title in mixed media formats, and will help nurture and develop the future visions of Hong Kong, based on the unforgettable memories from the past.

At the same time, we are launching our supporting platform – Athena’s Army.
This platform aims to help settling Hong Kong protestors who are in exile to the UK. Quite a number of them are seeking asylum, having no identity and are full of worries on accommodations, food and other necessities.

Together, let us stay alive. Let us stay strong.
