In pictures: Sketching Burma's cyclone

Aung Ni, of the foundation, describes the children's drawings as "interviews without words".

"I gave no hints on how to or what to draw, but always gave the response 'never mind, draw as you like'," he says.

"I know they can't draw waves, but when I collected their drawings and scanned them, I learnt that the waves they drew were very expressive and emotional.

"They can't draw water, but I can see their fear of flood that reached up to the chest while they were standing."
