James Mollison (Kenya, 1973) confirms that “play is incredibly universal” in Playground, a photographic series that shows scenes of school playgrounds in different parts of the world. Emphatically general though these views are, it is the details that show up the disparities between the socioeconomic and political environments of the playgrounds, but also the little difference there is in the behavior of children when the bell rings for the break.
