This tour will be led by Sara-Jayne Parsons, Exhibitions Curator at
the Bluecoat. She will be joined by exhibiting artist Laura El-Tantawy.
I exist (in some way) features the work of photographers who explore, frame or reveal constructions of personal and collective identity in the contemporary Arab world. Responding to the question ‘Who do you think you are?’ the exhibition presents a platform for subjective reflection. Artists living in the Middle East, in Europe and the USA, explore the process of self-determination through physical, psychological and sociological means.
I exist (in some way) is organised by the Bluecoat in partnership with LOOK/13, the Liverpool Arab Arts Festival (7-17 June), and Belgian nomadic arts centre, Moussem.
