guardians of the origami…

(final exhibition of the work the kids made during my 2 month stint in Andrha – we only displayed the origami as i projected a film of all the work in the main hall – these are some of my students looking after their work while watching the film)

I would love to say it was a requested portrait but it was me who did the asking, they looked so marvellous in the early morning light:
