Before I Die I want to do something in the Hong Kong Art field.
This is my aim, also is the most desirable wish in this stage.
This is a project launched by Nicole Kenney & KS Rives whose idea is to use the "dying" Polaroid to echo human lives with a "dying" question.

| Doesn't make sense? How about this: Because Polaroid has stopped its film production line, and this project uses this as a metaphor to depict life would be ceased someday. Every participant is asked " before you die what you want to do?". Then a photograph will be taken whilst the participant answering question, and he/she will also be asked to write down his/her wish on the Polaroid immediately. |

For me, I particularly like the series of
Hospice, at some degrees, it is the best. Hospice is the place where the old people live and wait for the end of their days. The pictures well depict the despair and desire. Furthermore, the Polaroids are their wills as well...! How say it is..

There are lots of theory behind this project, but in my perspective, this is a salvation project which gives an opportunity to people to pray, whether they are a Christian, Buddhist or atheist.
