Dedicated to the one I love

I featured the work of Mishka Henner and Liz Lock on duckrabbit a couple of days ago. I was drawn back to a series on their website this morning called Dedicated to the one I love, which explores the lives of some of the 50000 young people in Britain who have become their parents carers.  What’s really knocked me out is not the photos per se, but the way they combine with the text. That’s multimedia for you and it just goes to show that photographers shouldn’t be afraid to explore different ways to tell stories if they want to really cut through the noise.

duckrabbit would love to see this turned into an installation with sound. It would be very powerful.

Mishka and Liz, your work is an inspiration. A duckrabbit hats off.

Just spotted that Tom over at Photography Lot also spotted these guys last week, as has Joerg and Mark.

RESPONSE:

DESIREE:

Wonderful! So moving.

I agree with duckrabbit, I’d love to hear these brave kids’ voices too.

Juno:

Amazing! And yes please lets hear the children.
