The etymological origin for the Chinese word “fo2 bun6” (伙伴), or “partner”, traces back to the ancient military system. While “fo2” ( 火 ) refers to a unit of ten militants, it also doubles to mean “fire”. Indeed, the military was organised by the fire – the leader of a unit, “fo2 zoeng2” ( 火長 , literally meaning “ chief of the fire”), was in charge of cooking all meals which the team would share together. Therefore, those within one “fo2” were called “fo2 bun6” ( 火伴 ), or “partners of fire". This word was later adapted to generally mean "partners" ( 同伴 ) and was developed to be written as "伙伴” (fo2 bun6). Now, it refers to people who collaborate as part of the same organisation or activity, sharing the same practices and experiences.
Starting from 15th August 2019, Tsung Tsin Christian Academy and 1a space have joined to launch a one-year programme "Arts-in-School Partnership Scheme" initiated by the Hong Kong Arts Development Council. 1a space commissioned two artists, Kevin Ling and Debe Sham, to collaborate and explore how art knowledge can intervene secondary school students and the community through different workshops. “Hiddenfromview” – Arts-in-School Partnership Scheme Exhibition will anchor on the concept of outlining and recording space, and will allow glimpses into the interaction and transformation which the participating artists and students have undergone in the past year.

Exhibition period: 23thOctober - 18th November 2020

1a空間 實習生計劃 2020
1a space Internship Programme 2020
作為香港活躍的獨立藝術機構及場所之一，1a空間自2010年起提供培訓和實習機會給予有意投身藝術行政及文化管理的本地大專生及畢業生，讓實習生親身體驗本地藝術行政人員的日常工作及了解獨立藝術空間的營運模式，藉此獲取於藝術文化圈的實戰工作經驗，於未來的職場學以致用。
2020年，1a空間舉辦了2輪實習生計劃，共招聘了11位實習生。實習生除了協助1a空間團隊日常的行政工作、展覽佈置和後勤工作外，也能參與籌備1a空間多個當代藝術展覽，與國際藝術家交流，例如《Museum of Half Truths》、《超越物質》、《藝薈香港 — 由巴塞爾藝術展呈獻》等。
As an independent art institution and venue in Hong Kong, 1a space has provided training and internship opportunities to local university students and fresh graduates with strong interest in working professionally in the contemporary art since 2010. The internship scheme allows the interns to work closely with 1a space team to experience and learn about the daily operation of independent art space, which they can gain practical working experience in the art field for their future career.
In 2020, 1a space has held 2 rounds of internship programmes and recruited 11 interns in total. Apart from assisting the daily administrative duties, exhibition set up and logistics, 1a space interns also participated in the preparation and execution of various Contemporary Art Project, exchange ideas with international curators and artists, including “Museum of Half Truths”, “Beyond Matter”, “Hong Kong Spotlights by Art Basel”, etc.
