    Significance:

    Junkie’s Corner is a place I happened to discover many years ago by chance. It is truly a material jungle, stacked with a large amount of secondhand, man-made objects—a physical manifestation of our consumer culture.

    About the location:

    Junkie’s Corner is a massive second-hand store hidden in the jungle near Turf City. It was established in 2003 by collectors who have been gathering antique and vintage collectibles for decades. It is a place where you may not only find things you need, but also rummage through objects crossing the centuries, reminding you of the passage of time. According to the Urban Redevelopment Authority, Phase 2 of the Cross Island Line will be sited at Turf City. Since 2019, tenants have been reminded of the need to vacate the site due to future development plans. Soon we may not find Junkie’s Corner in such a setting anymore.
