Description: There is a proliferation of 'Opening Soon' or 'Coming Soon' signs on construction hoardings of new buildings and shopping centres around Xiamen. A local resident described how an 'Opening Soon' sign had been installed for two years at a particular location in the city for an expensive brand-name store. However when the signage was finally removed, the store it had advertised did not exist. The Action Researcher/Performer decided to create her own 'Opening Soon' sign and attached it to a bike, trolley and typical bamboo pole. This scaled-down version of these infamous signs was then wheeled and carried around her local neighbourhood in Xiamen. Anything, everything, might be Opening Soon!
