Homeless – Life Stories in Hong Kong and Taiwan

Description

Description

Every person on the street has his or her own story.

In Hong Kong, some were private tutors before, some had led dance troupes and some are ethnic Vietnamese who spent half of their lives building and serving Hong Kong…… In Taiwan, some were projectionists before, some were “Big Issue” sellers in the streets and some had played different roles in temple fairs…..

Yet as time moves on and society changes, personal predicaments have driven them to become street roamers.

SoCO has partnered with Homeless Taiwan to present “Homeless – Life Stories in Hong and Taiwan” Exhibition to allow the public to take a detailed look at their stories through these fading images.
