Description

My host, a Nepali youth in his 20s, asked me to photograph the school they were fundraising for. We hopped on their motorbikes and rolled through the “hills“ leaving sprawling Kathmandu and its dust behind us.

“Hills“ is a rather strange word to describe Nepal, but to the locals, anything up to 3,500 metres is a hill.

While photographing the school, I kept thinking of my own school in Lithuania in the ’90s. It was nearly as bare – walls, windows, desks, and chairs. And children, and teachers. What else does it take to make a school?

In my native westernised and modernised Lithuania nowadays, there seems to be more focus on the building, the latest technological gizmos, the electronic aids and gadgets. Aren’t they all just a distraction from the essence?
