Deconstructed Child 1

An artistic protest against crippling government control over childhood.

Part of a digital collage collection based on Dutch Renaissance art. Exuding hope that the new renaissance unleashed in the digital realm today may help children regain their voices.

The project is inspired by the burning issue of thousands of children being taken away from their parents in The Netherlands, many of them locked up in closed institutions. At the same time, it's devoted to all oppressed and unheard kids, anywhere.

This is a very personal project since my own children were born in Amsterdam. We had to leave The Netherlands as a family because of the country’s zero tolerance towards unschooling and self-directed fulfillment.
