Sunrise Cambodia · Vol. II · 2007
The in-between moments. The second volume.
These photographs continue the Sunrise Cambodia series. More moments from the centres in Siem Reap and Kandal Province in 2007 — but this time, less the organised activities and more the in-between. Classrooms when class had ended. Courtyards in the quiet between morning and afternoon. Meal times. The corner of a hallway where two children sat alone. The everyday life of growing up inside the program founded by Geraldine Cox.
Some of these images were taken during organised activities. Others happened between the activities — the in-between moments when no one was performing for the camera, when the day was simply unfolding.
The children in Vol. II were between four and fourteen years old. Today they are young adults aged twenty-three to thirty-three.
A note on these photographs. Many of these images are still in colour — and that is intentional. Sometimes a face is hard to recognise after twenty years. But the colour of a wall, the pattern on a piece of fabric, a familiar bowl, the corner of a courtyard — these can trigger a memory that a face alone cannot. And the adults in these photographs matter just as much as the children. A teacher. A caregiver. A cook. A staff member walking through the courtyard. They may recognise themselves first, then help us find the children who once stood beside them.
