Just cutting and pasting a press release that should find it's way to the local press in the next few days. Will be blogging about the project more in depth soon! :)
LOCAL TALENT FOR INTERNATIONAL PROJECT
Great Yarmouth
photographer Antonella Muscat and Norwich film maker Michelle Savage (Shelly
Telly) are joining forces in local group action focussing on the LGBT
community, for the International ‘INSIDE OUT’ project.
INSIDE OUT is a
large scale participatory art project that transforms messages of personal
identity into pieces of artistic work.
Everyone is challenged to use black and white photographic portraits to
discover, reveal and share the untold stories and images of people around the
world. These images are made into
posters and sent back to the groups to be exhibited in their own
communities. These exhibitions will be
documented, archived and viewable virtually.
Antonella and
Michelle met whilst during a Business Growth Programme at the UEA and decided
to collaborate artistically on the project after Antonella spotted the call for
participation via TED.com. “‘INSIDE OUT
and proud!’, are looking for individuals in the LGBT community who are willing to participate in
the project by having their photo taken”, said Michelle. “The resulting images will be turned into
posters that will be displayed during the LBGT History Month in February.”
Individuals
interested in participating in the project are asked to contact Antonella
Muscat on 07748 197522, by Friday 13th January, for further details,
or by joining the ‘INSIDE OUT and proud!’ group page on Facebook.
