Syrian children looking out from the train window in Croatia, September 2015.
These photographs were taken by a young portuguese photographer - João Porfírio - who spent a whole week travelling with other journalists to bring awareness about the refugee crisis. It has been the biggest migrant movement since World War II.
you deserve to be loved without having to hide the parts of yourself that you think are unlovable.

Room Portraits | Menno Aden
Through challenging camera angles Menno Aden abstracts most familiar actual living environments and public interiors into flattened two-dimensional scale models. A camera that the artist installed on the ceiling of various rooms takes pictures downwards of the interiors. The resulting images lay out space in symmetrical compositions that look like assemblages stripped off any kind of objectivity. The views into private homes and secret retreats bring up associations of the ubiquitous observation camera. The notion of surveillance is systematically played out by the artist to hint at society’s voyeuristic urge that popular culture has made mainstream.
