“Childhood Revisited is a body of work spanning almost 20 years. It is largely through taking these images, which number in the thousands, that I have learned about photography. I was captivated by the joy of these children and endeavored to capture the sense of purity happening all around us as we did chores, walked, read books and adventured. I hope that in these images you may glimpse and feel memories from long ago, as I do.” – Sabina Curti
