The homeless, a depiction of living.

The identity as a homeless aside, there are multiple aspects of their lives that have not been discovered. In Hong Kong, Some were the Teresa Teng (a famous Chinese singer) of Yau Ma Tei who still enjoy singing a lot, some have been the favourite bar attendants of their bosses, some were serving the locals well on an island, some are football coaches, influencing others’ lives and their own through the popular sports.

In Taiwan, some were projectionists, some are carpenters, some are ‘The Big Issue’ vendors, some are working in parade formation at temple fair, some are Homeless tour guides of Hidden Taipei, introducing the life of homelessness to the public. The heyday for them might have passed. The heyday for them might be now. Everyone has got their heyday.
