What is a “mug”?
 

To most people it may simply be a drinking device. However, it can also be a connection between you and a group of people who have a completely different perception of the same object.

The concept of this project is to make people think that there are challenged people in society who lack abilities to make sense of the most common items and to realize that in helping others we are learning something more meaningful in life.

什麼是“mug” 呢?
 

可能大部份人都認為這是一個很平凡的渴水工具,然而,它是一個最好的橋樑,連接著你和一群智障人士的心。他們的能力雖然受到限制,亦要面對生活不同的挑戰,但仍努力去爭取機會,向社會人士展示他們的才能,並且藉此讓大家認識他們,和感受幫助別人的喜悅。

這套水杯共七隻,分別印製了七種不同的圖案,由七位中度智障人士親手繪畫。他們嘗試透過畫筆畫出心中的意念和想法,以非語言的方法與社區人士溝通、交朋友。
