Current Events
"I liked the project, mostly because I had a camera in my hands for the first time and I could choose what to photograph at will."
Luis Felipe, 12 years old, Upala, Alajuela

"I think this project is a very good idea because it shows the fascinating world of photography, the use of cameras and things that were interesting to me, like showing natural disasters, Costa Rican crops and important places in Pérez Zeledón, San José, Costa Rica."
Tomás, 12 years old, Pérez Zeledón.
The concern for current events and their possible effects on the children’s immediate realities turn them into another great theme within the exhibition.

The path of Hurricane Caesar and the damages caused in the Southern Pacific region were concurrent with the process of taking photographs and it is documented through the eyes of children.
