In preparation for the 5th anniversary of the “Angels’ Trust/Letter (not sure of this one)” our studio is now very crowded due to the two newborns and five to six disabled children. Many notables have been coming to my studio recently, taking time out of their busy schedules to participate in this exhibition and helping these orphans to find a new home. This is perhaps a sign of the maturation of our society, and is not an uncommon sight. But what is particularly heartwarming, are the young stars who joyfully participated in the photo-shoot. This year, we have Yoon Eun Hye, Han Hye Jen (???), Nancy Lang, etc, young mothers who joined in good spirits, leading one to expect that this would be a spectacular photography exhibition.

In the process of the photo-shoot, something valuable I discovered is that, most of the participants joined for the love of the children. Like Yoon Eun Hye, who only spent 30 minutes taking the photos, but remained in the studio for 2 hours after to play with the kids and feeding them milk. When Yoon Eun Hye was with the kids, my studio felt like there were two mischievous kids, vibrant, boisterous and full of life and exuberance. In these situations, perhaps the strong maternal instincts in the female artistes are sparked by the plight of the orphans, explaining their behaviour. However, for the most parts, male artistes seldom express their feelings and love, or play together with the children.

Nice effect with the fan; I think it would be more moving shot in black & white.
