At a recent charity event organized to encourage autistic children to actively communicate with the outside world and also to raise public awareness about the disorder and help end discrimination, 10 children volunteers assisted 10 children with autism to communicate with strangers - using their cameras.

For both the children born with the genetic disorder and non-autistic children, photography became a crucial way of interaction, and the images they took together are now on display in Beijing.

Over 200 pictures are showcased until July 2 at the Echoes of Islands exhibition at the Best Look Studio.
