FRI 19 | Four photographers. Three photo series. Three takes on life in the Boeung Kak area. The precinct’s iconic lake was filled in 2010 to become what is now a vast sandpit in which children play and motocross. The lake-filling also catalysed the mass evacuation of thousands of residents from their homes. The three photo series focus on the activities and daily life of the remaining families after the transformation of the lake: on the railway, in the sand dunes and on the walls of the neighbourhood in its street art manifestation. Read more about the stories behind the exhibition on page 6.
