Plans for the Hong Kong-Singapore physical travel bubble may be up in the air at the moment, so take travel plans into your own hands this February 20 with the HK-SG Digital Travel Bubble. Co-presented by Sing Lit Station and The Substation, this ekphrastic series sees eight Singaporean and eight Hong Kong poets playing pandemic pen pals – exchanging photographs of their favourite nooks and crannies from their city. Each poet then writes a poem inspired by their own photograph, and the photograph received from their partner overseas.
