Ode to the Stolen Children

By Leise Knowles.

"Stolen at birth.
Exploration of the many children all over the world who have been removed from their family for what ever reason.
As with much of my work, the story is personally driven from my family history, but this one was also informed by the stories from a beautiful old English lady, an immigrant to Australia who was, along with her siblings, taken from her mother in the 1930's.
It seems to be a practice that thrived both in the UK and continued on here for many many decades."
