Polly | Swiss graphic designer - "As a paper-lover, I love how Hongkongers go back to paper for communication and promotion."

I think people in my country don't really understand how important Hongkongers’ fight is. As Switzerland is one of the most democratic countries in the world, freedom to us is like ‘air’, we are born with it - it is taken for granted. So I was wondering what I could do in an artistic way to help them understand.

Amy - 'People just look at the surface. They only see the chaos, but they don’t ask why there is chaos.'

I realised a lot of people around me are really angry. There’s a guy who sits next to me at work who gets really upset, but that’s all... There’s no point in being angry by yourself. You’re not helping anyone; you’re just making yourself unhappy. When I realised that, I started becoming more active.

Lennon Wall Guardian - "Every initiative, every contribution, every idea can have a massive impact in this movement."

I used to think that Hong Kong people were so selfish. They would never budge and make space for you on the MTR, and couldn't care less about you. I think that’s why Hong Kong people have been so affected by this movement: it has united people from all walks of life.
