Today the kids came back to visit us to show us what they have been taking pictures of the day before. You will soon find a selection of those pictures here on the blog. But we don`t have pictures of all the kids yet because only half of them can take photos at a time. In the meantime we want to introduce the kids from Tellwatta to you. The ones from Galle will follow soon.
The idea of this small project is to give the children of Tellwatte the opportunity to develop their own artistic style by using the means of photography. We hope they will be able to see the good sides of life and happiness in a country that has been splitted by war for over 25 years. Most of the kids were /are effected by the tsunami of 2004 and are not given the chance to work on the psychological issues they might have. Of course we will not be able to solve all their problems but we will try to make them happy for as much time as we can with the means we have in photography. If you want to help us to achieve that goal please contact us at:
