The city government and other organizations planned the event with its residents in an effort to show off the appeal of the waterfront area, currently undergoing redevelopment.
Using an art technique called pasting, photographs are glued onto outdoor walls and streets. Events in 138 countries have utilized this technique, with more than 440,000 photographs exhibited.
