The hanging

One wall done!







Needs to be lower...how much lower....just a hair lower...






All work and no play...

58 images to hang from three workshops: Mandalay, Nu Poe Camp, and last year's Help without Frontiers session that took place after the 2008 exhibition was up. Once again Nat proved impervious to sauna-like temperatures, the fastidiousness of tying fish line knots at heights of 12 feet, and many people telling him what to do!

Copious amounts of lime and lemongrass juice provided by curator Bo Bo and staff helped get the job done.

Another opening, another show...

Bo Bo had the gallery sparkling, the fresh spring rolls were gobbled up in a flash as was the huge tray of watermelon, pineapple and papaya. Old friends, new friends, students, former students, future students all oohed and aahed appropriately. It was worth every drop of sweat!













Nat and Petchari with her family. Petchari is the the project's camera dealer in Mae Sot. She has helped us many times with recalcitrant cameras and their makers. She also knows where to eat the best som tam place is in town.

Looking down at Borderline's entrance from 'Wayne's balcony' You can still see traces of blue oil stick on the floor.
