Carriages: Kamchatka Region, Russia In remote villages of the Kamchatka Region, Russia, two different descriptions of the futures of two loved and valued small children emerge against the background of the weatherworn buildings. The choice of strollers, outside, indicated to me the parents have voiced a clear recognition that the sexual and social future of their babies will be one thing for a daughter and another for a son. This is a village of no personal wealth but the voice and vision of the children of each set of parents standout as impossibly brilliant and colorful in an other wise drab and colorless setting.
