Highlighting issues surrounding migration and displacement, this project was developed to work with children in different contexts and locations. Linking lives from different places in the world, Navin Rawanchaikul visited a Thai friend who teaches refugee children in a suburb town near Atlanta in the U.S., travelling there to conduct workshops with the kids. Collaborator Kosit and his brother Waneak Juntaratip organised similar workshops with a suburb school on the Thai-Burmese border in a suburb of Chiang Mai. Both workshops linked their efforts with children in Kwangju, a city which has witnessed civil war and that also has a significant migrant population from China and elsewhere in Korea. The local children’s art workshops were conducted at different sites throughout the period of exhibition, while in the gallery was a large temporary cardboard house displaying all the children’s art works, videos, and other associated paraphernalia. Navin and his team of assistants slept in the ephemeral home over several nights.
