About this item

Chums - One of six limited edition prints by Jamie Hewlett. Jamie visited Oxfam’s Bangladesh River Basin Project in June and the experience inspired these paintings.

“We followed these two girls in the village looking happy and smiling. The children always looked so innocent. I wanted to portray the next generation and their future in an optimistic but realistic way - and show what a beautiful place Char Atra is. I think many people have sadly become numb (or immune) to footage of dying children. If people can relate to a picture, then it can sometimes have more of an impact. Showing two children being playful, walking down a path with their arms around each other is a connection that people here might understand from their own or their children's experiences.” J.H.

All proceeds go to Oxfam's River Basin Programme in Bangladesh and Nepal.

How does this gift help?
Oxfam's River Basin programme covers Bangladesh and Nepal. It has been operating since 1999, supporting some of the most vulnerable communities to protect themselves in emergencies and reduce the impact of flooding on their livelihoods, especially vital in the face of climate change.

The money raised for this programme will be spent on raising homes and flood shelters, providing rescue boats, emergency kits and river-bank strengthening, amongst other activities to help communities cope with flooding.
