Sometimes you see a photo and want to know the background of it. Here in “Children of a lesser God” Matt Collishaw re enacted a Romulus and Remus scene in order to attract attention to many children from broken homes roaming the streets of Bethnal Green, near Matt’s studio: Two kids on an abandoned sofa guarded by wild dogs. One kid sucking a nipple of the farthest dog.
I took this photo last week in Torino at the GAM Turino.
This is such a powerful image! Love it.
