The series of detailed photographic portraits of children were taken at a multicultural school in New York's East Village. The children were asked to imagine that they were a different person or in another place. Their eyes were closed. The muted colours of the images, as well as the disembodied calm of the portraits, echo the stillness of a death mask.
