ONE: Los Pequeños Aprendices de Zona Imaginara


Back in April I stopped by Zona Imaginaria in Buenos Aires to chat to founder Lucre and administrator Milli about their artist residency.  What a pleasure when at that meeting Lucre invited me to pass along to ZI the template for my ONE project postcards for the kids of los Pequeños Aprendices (Little Aprentices) group to complete.  And so what a huge pleasure now to have received a couple of weeks ago these photos of the kids busy at work thinking of their personal responses: the challenges they've overcome, their dreams for their own futures and hopes for our collective future.


Reading their answers brings a smile to my face, I love the imagination and passion that are evident in their responses, and with that beautiful honesty that is characteristic of kids.  In adding their postcard-portraits to our growing patchwork of participants that make up the ONE project I am happy to say we are welcoming a new generation to the group... fantastic!
