Fatima Mansions


All the children were photographed at Fatima Mansions, a poor area of Dublin with about ten blocks of flats. This place did not attract me because of the social conditions there, but rather because of the nature of the local children, who are very lively and open. For their games, they will be satisfied with anything that the unpleasant surroundings offer them. Their children's world is still quite strong. In the last few years, Irish Gardai police have increased their presence in the area. He tries to convince the inhabitants of the settlement that they are not enemies, but those who want to help them. It protects children from drug dealers and other possible abuses.
