the places we live..
The Places We Live (an interactive exhibition produced in cooperation with the Nobel Peace Center in Oslo) renders the day to day portrait of sixteen households located in 4 slums:
Caracas-Venezuella, Kibera-Nairobi-Kenya, Dharavi-Mumbai-India, Jakarta-Indonesia.
Life size images and audio segments in the exhibition help create the experience of a personal encounter with the slum dwellers. Each slum is represented by one room, where all four walls are built out of rear-projection canvas.
With a population swelling above 18 million, Mumbai is the world’s most densely populated urban area.
Even though it is the richest city of india, about two-thirds of its residents live in poverty, or slums.
Dharavi, Mumbai’s most infamous slum, is home to about one million residents living off the official city grid.
It is likely to vanish within a decade to make way to middle class apartment blocks.

Kibera, East Africa’s largest slum, is home to a quarter of the Nairobi’s population.
About 700 000 people squeeze into a piece of land the size of New York’s Central Park.
Because of it’s unauthorized status, ir receives no municipal services such as public water, sanitation, schools, health care, etc.
