My heart is breaking. I generally like to keep my posts uplifting and positive, but this has haunted me. A women kneeling in the middle of a busy street near my studio, her loyal companion waiting and watching patiently (the dog in the foreground shadows). On her knees she was crying about having her children taken away from her and wanting to end her life. The world had broken her. And any one of us could be in her place, all it takes is one tragedy, one loss, one addiction, one heartbreak, one illness too many. Fearing her and her dog might be hit by oncoming traffic I called 911, others had apparently done the same. I have so many questions: Why are individuals like this poor woman not getting the care they need? Why are mentally ill people wandering the streets of our towns and cities? Why has our society forgotten them? Why has the wealthiest country in the world not made this a priority? As a nation, as a human race, we need to seriously address this issue. It’s a travesty, it’s shameful, it’s criminal, and terribly terribly sad. #mentallyill #homelessness #homelesslivesmatter #mentallychallenged #drugaddiction #socialjustice #socialanxiety #mentalhealth #socialissuesmatter (at Lower Haight) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCELdtLBa1iNdupl3ipjDwfoJKmpKHWj5Vg5DU0/?igshid=194me4ycvmm1v

Yesterday the Terry Mikeska Foundation was asked if we could visit the Parents Self Help Group in Bhaktapur, Nepal, this is a day care for the mentally challenged and handicapped, it was originally started as a daycare for those suffering from cerebral palsy, it was such a wonderful experience to talk with each child and teenager and watch how they are learning and working on their education. I had asked what their needs where and they gave me a list and we took care of it 100%. @terrymikeskafoundation #mentallychallenged #Health #children #teenagers #education #Selfhelp #parentsselfhelpgroup #Nepal #bhaktapur #mentalhealth (at Bhaktapur, Nepal) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ch8dmxCI1yL/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

In 2007 I was fortunate enough to visit rural Kenya and a dozen or so schools. The desire of the children to learn was inspirational, in light of their extreme circumstances. The lives of children in rural Kenya are hard enough, and for these children even more so in light of their physical and mental challenges. In front of the camera however, they were themselves without reservation. The camera/lens combination was a Hasselblad 501CM/180mm, and the roll was exposed onto Fuji's brilliant Neopan Acros 100 using natural light. Most of my work is on film, and the countries are revisited year after year in order to continue the documentation of the same families, of the same communities. #mentalhealth #mentalchallenge #physicallychallenged #mentallychallenged #mentalillness #mentalhealthsupport #mentalillness #darkroomprint #kenya #120film #filmphotography #hasselblad #fujifilm #fuji #mediumformatphotography #darkroom #darkroomphotography #darkroom_daydream #education #educationmatters #african #africa #africanprint #bnw #bnw_captures #portraitsonfilm #portrait #portraitphotography @natgeo @natgeotravel @natgeoyourshot @nationalportraitgallery #ruralphotography (at Kisumu Kenya) https://www.instagram.com/p/CeuXvTGJmEm/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

At once soothing and satisfying to the creative urge, making greeting cards is a favourite activity at our workshop and these cards are priced at Rs. 30 each. 

The mission of Navkshitij is to create a home for mentally challenged friends, where their ageing parents can see them relocated, assured that their child will live a life which is happy, dignified, warm and full of excitement and joy, and also be an accepted part of society; and in this way motivate and empower other NGOs and parents to start many such centres, replicating the Navkshitij model.
