Description

James Mollison's photographs capture children at play in school playgrounds, revealing how we learn to navigate relationships and our place in the world through play. Inspired by his own childhood memories, Mollison sets up his camera during school break time, making multiple frames before composing each final photograph from several scenes. The resulting images showcase a global diversity of settings, from rich to poor schools in countries such as Argentina, Bhutan, Bolivia, India, Israel, Italy, Japan, Kenya, Nepal, Norway, Sierra Leone, the United Kingdom and the USA. Through these photographs, Mollison provides access for a broad range of readers to issues of global inequality and the importance of play in shaping our lives.
