Monique Derwig lives in Valkenburg, a small city in the south of Holland where she works as a teacher in a school for physically disabled children. All her life she has made all kind of things with her hands. This, combined with her hunger for travelling, her interest in life and culture from other countries, her love of children and her love of photography has led to her biggest hobby: collecting children’s clothing. After buying a piece she wants to know as much as possible about the it - the materials, techniques, symbols…… In her spare time Monique is the chairperson of Association Kumari providing help for two projects for disabled children in Kathmandu, Nepal for which she travels at least once a year to Nepal.
