Cosmin Costinas, incoming curator of Hong Kong’s only serious alternative space, Para/Site, attempts to shape his upcoming exhibition program with a project seeking to explore the ramifications of the past year—a period of time during much of which, not entirely coincidentally, the art space has been left rudderless and without direction.
