Bedrooms show who we are

A few days ago one of my friends posted this link on Facebook. I absolutely LOVE the idea! James Mollison, a documentary photographer born in Kenya who grew up in England, wanted to represent needy children around the world in a new, unique way for a children's charity project. "When he visualized his own childhood, he realized that his bedroom said a lot about what sort of life he led. So he set out to find others." What better way to learn about children and how they are growing up than to find out about their homes and, specifically, their bedrooms? Mollison "posed his young subjects -- more than 200 of them -- against blank white backgrounds for their portraits, leaving their bedrooms to do the talking." I have to admit, I'm kind of jealous that someone else had this idea first... Now what other creative and interesting photojournalism projects are out there for me to undertake?? Guess I'll just have to keep my brain turned on and my thinking cap fastened, eh? Oh and, Mollison's new book, "Where Children Sleep," that stemmed from the project, is totally going on my Amazon Wish List!
