About
Paul is a Perth based travel photographer and also a director of a small charity called the Blue Sky Project. His work as a travel photographer has allowed him to capture the lives and cultures from over thirty countries. The Blue Sky Project has allowed me to make a small difference to the quality of life, safety and education of children in less fortunate regional areas in developing countries.
The Blue Sky Project Exhibition
The Blue Sky Project Exhibition will showcase the work and stories behind rebuilding an impoverished primary school in the delta region of Burma. Burma is a beautiful, proud country; however, there exists many old farming areas which provide limited opportunities for the education and health of children. Typically, schools are funded by communities, not the local government. The Blue Sky Project will market, fundraise and document the construction of a school.
Burma in Portrait Exhibition
All proceeds from the exhibition will fund a project to build a school for impoverished children in the Irrawaddy Delta region of Burma. The planned construction project will provide a clean, safe place to learn all year round. Visit www.blueskyproject.com.au for more information and to learn more about this project.
