BLOCKS is a photobook by Hong Kong photographer, Dustin Shum.
ARTIST STATEMENT
BLOCKS is perhaps my Ancient Rome, through which I look back at my past and watch, rather helplessly, people being forced to invest feelings of ‘home’ in these buildings. In addition to exploring the bizarre living conditions inside these artificially engineered residences of happiness, this series is also a memorabilia of the thirty years of my life in public housing. — Dustin Shum
