谷埔位於香港新界沙頭角旁的谷埔，是一個以姓氏為族群的客家村莊，從鹿頸到谷埔是週末遊人遠足的熱門路線。是次展覽"谷埔喺個島？”將以村民的視角出發，探索谷埔的多元風貌、獨特視覺和故事。從遊人眼中，谷埔是一條行山路線；然而對於當地居民而言，從水路來往沙頭角才是他們的日常生活之路，也是當年沙頭角內海和船灣東北海岸線的交通要站，令谷埔蓬佩的原因。

展覽分為三個部分：第一部將以水路（沙頭角至谷埔）為主軸，拆解景觀，從村民視角闡述碼頭、海洋和船隻對當地居民的重要性；其次，以谷埔建築為主題，描繪荒廢建築物周圍樹木生長的情況，強調樹木以及人對建築的支撐意義；最後，以谷埔建築的舊瓦片組成故事書，繪上原稿紙格，宛如揭開屋簷下一幕幕故事向觀眾展現。

Kuk Po is a Hakka village located near Sha Tau Kok in the New Territories of Hong Kong, known for its clan-based community. The route from Luk Keng to Kuk Po is a popular hiking trail for weekend visitors. The exhibition ‘Is Kuk Po an Island?' will explore the diverse facets, unique visuals, and stories of Kuk Po from the perspective of its residents. While outsiders view Kuk Po as a hiking trail, for the locals, the waterway connecting Sha Tau Kok is their daily lifeline, serving as a crucial transportation hub between the Inner Sea of Sha Tau Kok and the northeast coast of Chuenwan in the past, contributing to the prosperity of Kuk Po.

The exhibition is divided into three parts: the first part focuses on the waterway (from Sha Tau Kok to Kuk Po), deconstructing the landscape and highlighting the significance of piers, the sea, and boats to the local residents from the villagers' point of view. The second part centres on Kuk Po's architecture, depicting the growth of trees around abandoned buildings to emphasise the significance of trees and human beings in supporting the structures. Lastly, the exhibition uses old tiles from Kuk Po's buildings to create a storybook, with original manuscript paper grids, as if unveiling a series of stories under the eaves to present to the audience.
