Slowly but surely, it’s all coming together.
Three young survivors and a young deminer from the Cambodian Self-Help Demining group are working on a piece for the exhibit under the guidance of Sasha and a young artist named Savann. Although these kids are not (professional) artists, all participated in art workshops at the Cambodian Landmine Museum in the past and have demonstrated quite a bit of talent. All four will work together on one big piece.
Sasha sent me a few pictures this morning, and it looks like things are going well.

I won’t describe what the plan is just yet, but take my word that the artwork will be totally awesome, if you can picture that.
It’s also a chance to discuss remaining logistics with Sasha before I go on holiday. The initial opening isn’t until 30 September, but there’s so much to take care of now in order for everything to go off without a hitch (or with minimal hitches). Hopefully we can sort it out in an hour or so...
Now all we need is for this idle blogger to update readers on all of the great experiences we’ve been having over the past few months.
