Micromégas is a residency program focused on new media and expertise, co-organized by the Consulate General of France in Hong Kong and Macao, Videotage, and Cneai =. Designed as a recurring program since 2021, the residency offers an annual theme that promotes richer cultural exchange between France and Hong Kong each year.
The 2025 edition focuses on the intersection of craftsmanship and technology, featuring artists who integrate manual craftwork and programmed production in their practices. This year, with HART HAUS and Yishu8 as Residency Partners, the programme brings together two artists — Mae Chan (Hong Kong) and Mona Cara (Paris) — for a cross-cultural exchange taking place in October and November. Both artists will research local textile artisanality and explore contemporary technologies available in their host cities.
