Oi! Street Gallery explores the idea of an exhibition curated by docents in "Sparkle! Neo Trave

Docent services are not only accessories of exhibitions, in many occasions, docents serve as secondary curators re-interpreting the exhibits. In an inversion of roles, docents become the protagonists in this project led by curator Jeff Leung.
