Examines the camp sites of a small and largely unseen community
of foreign workers, possibly undocumented, who live amongst
the rolling sand dunes of a large land reclamation project.
Their makeshift tents are constructed from scavenged construction
rubbish consisting of mostly plastic sheeting and PVC wiring
pipes. The best of the tents are furnished with simple woven
mats and cheap foam pillows, but most tents are completely
bare with just thin plastic boards for a base to sleep on.
The inhabitants supplement their daily food intake with
fish, horseshoe crabs and shellfish, all caught and gathered
from along the shoreline.
October
2016; the population of the tent community has dwindled
dramatically, with most of the makeshift structures now
left abandoned and in tatters.
