Maude: I should like to change into a sunflower most of all. They're so tall and simple. What flower would you like to be?
Harold: I don't know. One of these, maybe.
Maude: Why do you say that?
Harold: Because they're all alike.
Maude: Oooh, but they're *not*. Look. See, some are smaller, some are fatter, some grow to the left, some to the right, some even have lost some petals. All *kinds* of observable differences. You see, Harold, I feel that much of the world's sorrow comes from people who are *this*,
[she points to a daisy]
Maude: yet allow themselves be treated as *that*.
[she gestures to a field of daisies]

Seba Kurtis is an Argentinian photographer who uses his personal experiences of being an illegal immigrant in his current endeavours. The above works are from a project entitled A Few Days More.
Egyptians are increasingly making the trek to Italy for better jobs and opportunities. The Italian government is making this already difficult trek harder, by limiting Egyptians access to Libya, where the travel to Europe is cheaper and quicker. Remittance is the third largest source of revenue in Egypt, and the new Italian laws are in place to prevent the Arabs from moving in.

I recently lost a close friend of mine, and I have been frustrated with the moments I can't remember with her. I have been battling with the memory loss, looking at photographs of her, reading letters we used to send each other, paging though my negatives and journal entries, and collecting what I have in order to preserve her. These works by Clang examine that fear we have of forgetting someone we love after they pass.
