The Pink and Blue Project by Korean photographer, Jeong-Mee Yoon, shows boys and girls with a collection of their personal items. The color pink represents femininity whilst blue represents masculinity, and we see the children surrounded by items that typify their gender.
How will these children learn to appreciate possessions with such over-consumption? This will create a generation beyond the greed and entitlement that generation ‘Yuppies’ have portrayed for so long.
The colors have little to do with it anymore. It conotes greed and over-stimulation.
Hi,
We are a group of Brazilian professionals who have been developing a didactic material to be commercialized and used in schools all around the country.
We are not part of some major publisher company; instead, a local school which believes in the quality of our project, invest in our work.
First of all, we would like to congratulate you about your excellent photos.
We are writing to express an interest in using the photos posted in your blog in our books and DVD-roms with your credits, illustrating a lesson about children education.
As a small institution are afraid that we cannot afford too much, specifically in dollars and/or euros amounts. We hope that you can understand our point.
We feel that your work could contribute a lot to our educational project.
If any further information is required, we are at your disposal and/or you can visit our website http://www.jpiaget.com.br (in Portuguese).
Sincerely,
Barbara Lacerda
