Studio Leung's new project Printable Offerings re-interprets the Chinese tradition of burning paper gifts for family and friends who have passed away.
Concept These gifts are made of paper and come in many product types which are purchased in selected Chinese shops and supermarkets worldwide. Printable Offerings aims to preserve this Chinese tradition with an updated selection of gifts, ready to be downloaded as PDF files, assembled and offered to loved ones who have passed away. The selection ranges from the aspirational iPhone to quintessentially Hong Kong objects such as Tempo pocket tissues and the Octopus travel card.
Download & Print Collection 1 has been designed in time for the Qingming Festival (April 5th) - a festival which encourages people to enjoy the Spring season and visit the graves of departed ones. The collection focuses on everyday objects that play a huge role in Chinese culture, such as the Octopus travel card and Bic biro. Collection 2 will be made available on July 15th, one month before the Hungry Ghost Festival.
