Miho Suzuki: Our Children Today
May 30th 11am
“If we were able to in a quick flight over the United States in 1950 to look carefully at our nation’s children- what would we see?” How would the picture be different from what it was fifty or even ten years ago? What can we expect in the future? These are questions that can, at least in part, be answered.”
–Leona Baumgartner, M.D.
From the short essay, A Look at Children in The U.S.A., this quote has served as inspiration for Miho Suzuki’s ongoing photographic exploration of the glorious diversity of children in New York City. The artist will be sharing some of her images and ideas, and hopefully inspiring young and old to join her in a discussion of what it means to be a child. Please feel free to bring toys or favorite objects from your childhood to this May 30th edition of the cHURCH OF MONIKA.
