01 Mar 2005: Think Peace children picture peace in Amsterdam
Just for our own pleasure we re-edit the exibition of the children-photographers that started 25 oktober 2003 as an Open Source project in The Baarsjes in Amsterdam. Childen aged 9 to 12 received for one day a Nikon instant camera and took pictures of their urban environment in search for peace in the area.
The children received a shorty and compact explenation on photo-techniques form the professionals Robert Rizzo and
Lars Keppel.
Not all was understood so clearly as came out at the end of the day: Desmond had told Basma that she would find the pictures ready printed when she would open her camera. That's how Basma had to redo all her work with a fresh roll. Maryan enjoyed the photographing so much that she did the shooting twice. After all there came out beautiful results double taken.
The young photographers are:
Dagaya Blokland, Stephan Bosompem Mensah, Hicham Bouychaouihan, Gilermo Cairo, Marc van Iperen, Abdelhak Krafes, Negesty Mensah, Earlyson Meridina, Jack Morsman, Stefan Verhaaff, Oumaima Zemouri, Jisca Kerkhof, Jean Paul Hendrickx, Sami Achetib, Omer Bay, Mylo Chanté Ferrier, Jeven Doski, Sharon Streur, Jasem Jawaheri, Youssra Boujemaoui, Abigail Banguilem, Michael Fahim, Mümin Erkan, Desmond Ben Smith, Khadir Yusuf, Charafeddin Alachkar, Basma Ahaddouch, Pola Fahim, Solen Doski, Jelena Todorovic, Naïma El Ghazouani, Maryan Boudhan, Aïsa Bel, Mevlüt Erkan, Eddy Nannan, Chourisha Linkers, Anita Rmharakh, Donya Salarbux, Safir Tadrous, Jaryn Yigit, Sabrina Hazel, Rachel Bijvank en Mitchell Kunst.

The project was sponsored by Jantje Beton Foundation, Lumino Fotovaklaboratorium, KPMG Make it Happen Fund, Kral Super Foto, Woningbedrijf Amsterdam, Stadsdeel de Baarsjes.
