Thanks For Your Support

867

It’s time to give another shout out to all the wonderful people who helped make my Amazon photo project dream come true. In June 2012 I launched a crowdfunding campaign on Pozible.com to invite supporters to be part of my photo project to create Portraits of the Disappearing Amazon. The response was overwhelming and as a result I was able to spend two months visiting and photographing ten different tribes in the Amazon of Peru, an amazing experience which I will never forget. This week I’m posting out the final Thank Yous to supporters of the project, including prints of the portraits I created in the jungle. I’m so looking forward to getting my hands on the Photo Books that I’ve had published as gifts for the major supporters, which are in the post to me right now. I can’t wait to hand them over in the next few days. Muchisima Gracias Amigos! If you would like to see photographs from the project, please go to my New Work Folio on my website. Read More

I have added a new page to my blog, Chugchilan in 30 Days. Chugchilan is the little village I am currently living in. There is no bank, no post office and no noise. There is a whole lot of charm, culture and natural beauty. Just click on the tab at the top of the page to take a step into the Andes of Ecuador. You can also get a written perspective of the village on my partner James’ blog. Read More

Recycling around the World

My boyfriend James is on a mission to recycle everything possible. While in Peru, he designed a funky wallet that can be made from used milk, juice or wine 1 litre cartons. He taught some local kids how to recycle the cartons into wallets, and he started a 1-man factory in our apartment where he created wallets from the piles of cartons which were donated. All wallets come from either Peru or Ecuador, with a variety of images and writing in Español. These wallets will be for sale. If you want some early inside info, send me an email at info@aliciafox.net Here are some shots of James teaching children at the C.E.P school in Huanchaco, Peru, how to make the wallets. Read More

This morning as I walked along my now local beach here in Peru, I was shocked to come across the head and tail of a dolphin. The decapitated animal looked as if was still smiling – just as they do at Seaworld and other marine parks. These photos will be used by an amazing organisation in Peru, Mundo Azul, which is working to protect Peru's beautiful cetaceans. Read More
