On the occasion of the International Mouth and Foot Painting Day of 5 September 2018, numerous events, live acts and interviews took place all over the world. To the mouth and foot painters it was important to draw attention to their unique art and challenges. Painting gives them the opportunity to get in touch with the world in a different way. Through the pictures, they express their feelings, happiness and sorrows in a very personal manner and without barriers. Here are some impressions of this very special day:
