The Unseen Seen inħolqot mill-membri tal-WAYout, organizzazzjoni li tuża l-arti biex tagħti s-setgħa liż-żgħażagħ tat-triq fi Sierra Leone billi toffri faċilitajiet bla ħlas fil-produzzjoni tal-films, il-produzzjoni tal-mużika, il-fotografija, il-pittura u l-kitba. Ir-riżultati rebħu premjijiet u ntwerew fil-livell internazzjonali filwaqt li jagħtu vuċi u jbiddlu l-ħajjiet tal-kreaturi.
The Unseen Seen ma tostorx mir-realtajiet ħorox tal-ħajja fi Sierra Leone, iżda l-immaġnijiet jinħolqu minn dawk li għexu l-esperjenza u jmorru lil hinn mill-aħbarijiet ewlenin biex juru l-kuntentizza, l-umoriżmu u s-sbuħija fi kwalunkwe ħajja. Hija stedina biex issir riflessjoni fuq id-differenza u s-similaritajiet kulturali, fuq il-kwistjonijiet tal-privileġġ u l-faqar u l-importanza marbuta ma’ min huwa l-awtur tal-istorja.
Tim Kreattiv: Kuratur: Joseph Simon Gauci The artworks in the exhibition have been created by young artists in Sierra Leone working with WAYout in Freetown
The Unseen Seen has been created by members of WAYout, an organisation that uses the arts to empower street youth in Sierra Leone by offering free facilities in filmmaking, music production, photography, painting and writing. The results have won awards and been exhibited internationally whilst giving voice and changing the lives of creators.
The Unseen Seen does not hide from the harsh realities of life in Sierra Leone, but the images are created by those with lived experience and go behind the headlines to show the joy, humour, and beauty in any life. It is an invitation to reflect on cultural difference and similarities, on issues of privilege and poverty and the importance attached to who is the author of the story.
