This art-project was born at the beginning of 2015, when the writer Jean-Henrik Johansson commissioned an sculpture on paper about children's rights. The piece motivated me to continue a storytelling and sculpture project on children about their struggles in society.
"This exhibition is dedicated to you who are on the first or second decade of your life; this is a time in which you are playing a lot, getting to know the world and learning many important things. This exhibition is dedicated to you who have heard about human rights and already know the RIGHTS you have as a child and adolescent". RMB
