Matteo Vergani's City of Kids: Images from the Future
An image taken by one of the children working in Matteo's project.
Here is a link to Matteo's blog
Matteo Vergani's poster was right across from mine this summer at IVSA in New York City. We shared double-sided tape. He had this great presentation on the computer with lots of graphics and images and sounds. Matteo spent 3 months in favela Rocinha in Rio de Janeiro working with kids. He gave them cameras. They took photographs. Matteo writes: "Kids themselves took the pictures using discardable cameras. They used them to tell the story of their lives, of the faces they see everyday, of the spaces they inhabit, of their parents, their neighbors, their brothers and sisters."
