Subject: Re: Invitation to exhibit from Hong Kong XXXX

Dear Mr. Lee,
Hope this email finds you well.

We believe that you have already learned about the news that the Hong Kong National Security Law was passed not long ago. After carefully examining its details, we consider that it will be perilous to exhibit the "Important Times" series which contains scenes and slogans of protests. Needless to say, we are also enraged by this restriction of artistic freedom; however, the most important thing for us is to ensure your safety as well as that of other exhibitors and the staff. As a result, we will manage to respond to the law's influences on art and education without violating the law itself.

We were wondering if it would be possible to exhibit your artworks in this way: while keeping the original explanatory labels, brochures and exhibition space next to the entrance, we plan to replace the original exhibits with the same amount and size of blank paper to reveal the reason why these works cannot be displayed.

We would appreciate hearing your opinion on this. Any and all suggestions are welcome.
