Children from Greyton, South Africa
and Fairfield High School, Hereford

My Life

A rural South African school gave 32 pupils a disposable flash camera, inviting eachof them to illustrate their life for a project called My Life.

The results portray a child’s view of a poor, rural life. The students are from impoverished families living in and around Greyton in the Western Cape, about (94 miles) from Cape Town. Children from Fairfield High School in Peterchurch, Herefordshire, have now responded to these images, documenting their own lives.

The two bodies of work will be exhibited together.
