BOOK: Abandoned Villages of Hong Kong

Stefan Irvine's photobook, "Abandoned Villages of HongKong," invites readers to explore the forgotten corners of the city and discover the haunting beauty hidden within it parks and islands. Through his photographs, Irvine breathes new life into crumbling facades and overgrown relics, capturing the enduring charm of these abandoned homes. The collection showcases Hong Kong's isolated settlements, preserving disappearing places with a documentary approach. With a foreword by DouglasYoung and personal histories by former village residents, the book not only pays tribute to the resilience of the HongKong people but also serves as a reminder of the transient nature of life and the legacy of those who came before us.
