On August 12th I will be holding an exhibition of work in Medicine Hat, Alberta, Canada. The title is "Where do the Children Play" inspired by Yusaf Islams (Cat Stevens) song by the same title.
Included in the exhibition are children playing alongside Sri Lankan military guards in Tamil Tiger controlled Batticaloa, in Northern Sri Lanka, children catching dragon flies after the devastating flood in Jakarta, Indonesia, children inhaling glue in Kathmandu, Nepal, children climbing scaffolding erected to build new government buildings and thus further displacing the displaced in Kabul, Afghanistan - the one amazing quality found throughout the exhibition is that despite their situation children have incredible resilience and somehow manage to laugh, sing, play, and hope for a better future.
