Summary:I lived and grew up in a fishing village at the seaside in Pengerang, Southern Malaysia. Unfortunately, Pengerang is undergoing demolition due to the construction of an oil refinery since year 2011. I have been working on the issue of demolition for the past 2 years. The most recent problem encountered by the villagers, which is the relocation of residential estates, has brought my attention to the issue of living space as one the basic human needs. The destruction of habitat is able to impact one’s life radically, this issue has intrigued my curiosity in the way humans define living space.
