Painting Our Lives is a book of art and testimony by Cambodian children affected by AIDS, AIDS Orphans and Children with AIDS. The children who are living in the midst of the AIDS epidemic claim their own voices and tell their stories as they see it through their own words and pictures. Through the paintings and testimony in this book, the children explore their identities, describe their daily lives, engage their imaginations and talk about their dreams for the future. Painting Our Lives documents the triumph of the human spirit over unimaginable difficulties and celebrates the ability of art to empower, transform, heal, speak truth and delight the human spirit. Painting Our Lives places the paintings and testimony by these remarkable and inspiring young people into the historical record of AIDS in our times.
