“Where Children Sleep” Is A Photo Series Showcasing Children’s Living Conditions Around The World (18 Pics)
“Where Children Sleep” is a book featuring photographs taken by James Mollison, an English-born photographer, of children across the globe and their bedrooms. Initially published in 2010, the book showcases the diverse living conditions and environments in countries such as the U.S.A., Mexico, Brazil, England, Italy, Israel, Kenya, Senegal, Lesotho, Nepal, China, and India.
The project “Where Children Sleep” highlights the major differences between each child's living conditions and their circumstances. James Mollison provides readers with a glimpse into the lives of children in diverse situations globally, allowing them to reflect on the existing inequalities and appreciate their privilege, particularly those living in developed countries. The second part of “Where Children Sleep” is set to release in autumn this year.

Tzvica is a Hebrew name and the side curls point to the Hasidic ultra-orthodox faith and they follow very strict rules guiding everything in their lives. This could be the reason for the rather austere edroom of this child.

Probably an unpopular opinion but some of these seem rather biased towards a lot of people's opinion of certain countries. There are children living in squalor in America, Australia and the U.K. While there are billionaires kids living in unbelievable luxury in India and China for example.
Could also be titled 'photographer travels the world to try to find national stereotypes to capture'
YES! or it’s AI and it’s all fake
