Display Distribute is a thematic inquiry, distribution service, now and again exhibition space, and sometimes shop based out of Kowloon, Hong Kong. A port region extending out of “the world’s factory”—the Pearl River Delta is seen as both a facilitator and processor, a microcosm of broader global trends that also bears witness to the capricious circulation patterns of “low-end globalization.” Documenting the ad-hoc arrangements and various micro and macro interactions that are rapidly transforming the social and material landscape, Display Distribute undertakes collaborative research projects that trace these flows and fissures in order to investigate new possibilities for networked forms of production. Recently, these activities have included artist-run distribution service LIGHT LOGISTICS, poetic research and archival unit The Shanzhai Lyric, and a peripatetic radio programme of hidden feminist narratives along the supply chain known as Widow Radio Ching.
