Through Their Eyes Gallery's Blurbs |
About me:
Through Their eyes is putting on a Gallery for Atlanta's inner city youth who have taken on the role of journalist to inspire you to open your eyes a little wider and look through theirs. On December 9th join Atlanta's youth, Essential 2 Life's Vince Hungate and Meet Justice's Daniel Homrich to take a trip into their reality not only through their written words, but creatively through images and video.

THROUGH THEIR EYES is a camera project facilitated by Meet Justice, a non-profit organization based in Atlanta. This project focuses on 13 of Atlanta’s at risk youth who have made a commitment to bring change to the community. Through professional photography and video instruction, these youth have learned how to use their creativity as tools to influence society, and provided them a creative outlet to bring to light their reality as seen "Through Their Eyes".
Our desire for this project stems from the collective voice of the students screaming, “You don’t know what it’s like!” By empowering these students to tell their story, we are creating a catalyst for action.

Who I'd like to meet:
Through bi-weekly forums, the Meet Justice team along with visiting professional photographers and videographers have instructed the youth in photography skills along with teaching them the journalistic side of documenting life around them. These youth have spoken up and are looking for a voice. Through Their Eyes provided for them not only a creative outlet to speak, but also the ability to cause change by telling the stories they feel the media neglects to tell.
The Through Their Eyes camera project lasted for 60 days and included 6 forums where photography instruction along with story telling concepts were taught. The youth were split into two groups, half focused on still photography while the other half directed their attention toward video. Each forum the students were paired with either a professional photographer or videographer who discussed their footage with them, and helped them develop the story that they are looking to tell.
Join us on December 9th from 5pm-9pm to experience the raw stories through powerful photography and video as seen through the eyes Atlanta's inner city youth journalist.
The time has come for the voiceless to be heard, and life to be seen as it truly exist. No longer will the excuse of ‘you don’t know what it’s like’ exist. You are now responsible.
