Creative Project "Where Children Sleep" Features Kid's Bedrooms From Around the World

“Where children sleep” is an amazing project of the American photographer James Mollison. He traveled around the world to see the conditions in which children sleep from different social groups. Photographer James Mollison created a portrait of each child and his room, which is limited to one bed or only a sofa mattress. This photo project outline is based on the book “Where children sleep.”

“I hope the book gives a glimpse into the lives some children are living in very diverse situations around the world; a chance to reflect on the inequality that exists, and realize just how lucky most of us in the developed world are,” – says James. Take a look!

    This is outrageous! Mr. James Mollison, the photos that you took don’t reflect the reality at all! Have you searched for the poorest people from each of the countries that you traveled in, other than USA? I find this article offensive for many people because it doesn’t show the truth and everyone should be aware of this.

    dear ‘me’,

    shut up. just shut up. it’s not offending anyone. those are their realities and that’s that, whether they are the richest or the poorest..have YOU travelled to any of these places? probably not. enjoy the beauty of the works and shut your delicate hole.
