#FD-60, Children playing while their parents work the garbage, THE FAMILIES OF THE DUMP, Mae Sot, Thailand, 2018
They played for a long time in the little shelter, laughing with joy.
#SN-8, Man sleeping on street, SUKHUMVIT AT NIGHT, Bangkok, Thailand, 1999
He slept in a dark corner on Sukhumvit road, forgotten and ignored. He did not speak; I never saw him again or learned his name.
He was drunk and had just vomited on the floor of the train station. A professor, he gave me his card and ran off to catch the last train.
#S-2, Nit Sex Worker, SOPHENI, Bangkok, Thailand, 2003
She started to work when she was a teenager in the Gigi bars of Patpong. It was the tail end of the war in Vietnam. Now she worked the streets and customers were hard to come by. I photographed her maybe 10 times. Then she disappeared.
#PUF-43, Ga 30, staring out of her small tent, THE PEOPLE WHO LIVE UNDER THE FREEWAY, Klong Toey Slum, Bangkok, Thailand 2022
She seemed frightened and was always looking out a small hole in her cloth covered home under the freeway. I gave her some chicken i gad bought with some rice. She tried to sell me some jewelry.
