Stitching Our Stories Community Celebration 2013
The November 2013 Stitching Our Stories Community Celebration and pop-up exhibition was a big success! The exhibition, coordinated in partnership with Traditional Arts and Ethnology Centre, featured the work of 13 Lao women and girls from a range of ethnic backgrounds who came together to document the lives, stories, and faces of women and girls in their communities. Over the course of five weeks, the participants developed their photography skills and captured the varied roles of women and girls in a rapidly changing Laos. Check out the photos from the event and stay tuned for the new artist portfolios in the PhotoForward Web Gallery!
This year's Community Celebration, coordinated in partnership with Traditional Arts and Ethnology Centre, featured the work of Lao women and girls from a range of ethnic backgrounds, ages, and villages who came together to document the lives, stories, and faces of women and girls in their communities. Over the course of five weeks, the participants were introduced to camera skills and composition techniques that they used to record women and girls at work and at play and capture the varied roles of their mothers, sisters, family, friends, and neighbors in a rapidly changing Laos.
(Note: Most of the photos in this collection were taken by Pasong Ly, TAEC Intern and PhotoForward Scholarship recipient. She also MC'd the certificate ceremony this year!)
