Overview
Though our paths may diverge while living in the same community, they all intersect at Lam Tsuen River. One river connects us, running through the centre of Tai Po, passing by each others’ homes, open spaces, smoothing over traces of history, and into the corners where all lives cohabit. We will begin with the everydayness of public housing estates, slowly strolling along the river to explore new perspectives of looking at this community.
