Photo 01: Two victims amid the rubble of a garment factory building collapse in Savar, near Dhaka, Bangladesh.  Photo 2: A pair of human skeletons found Monday Feb. 6 at a construction site outside Mantua. Archaeologists unearthed the skeletons, believed to be a man and a woman, from the Neolithic period, buried between 5000 to 6000 years ago. “Photos derive power not just by themselves, but from others that have come before.” from an article on the resonance and staying power of photographs.

“The child in each of us
Knows paradise.
Paradise is home.
Home as it was
Or home as it should have been.

Paradise is one’s own place,
One’s own people,
One’s own world,
Knowing and known,
Perhaps even
Loving and loved.

Yet every child
Is cast from paradise-Into growth
and new community,
Into vast, ongoing
Change.”

From the Parable of the Sower by Octavia E. Butler.
“Art is important only to the extent that it helps in the liberation of our people. It must answer a question, or wake somebody up, or give a shove in the right direction.
Elizabeth Catlett Mora (April 15, 1915 – April 2, 2012), American-born Mexican sculptor and printmaker. 
“Photography is essentially an act of non-intervention. Part of the horror of journalistic coups of contemporary photojournalism comes from the awareness of how plausible it has become, in situations where the photographer has the choice between a photograph and life, to choose the photograph.
Susan Sontag on contemporary photojournalism.
