Hanging Out
Hanging Out explores the idea of neighbourhood as a place to share stories. In response to Sergey Kim’s public art piece Neighborhood Open Eye Gallery invite local people to select any garment featured in Kim’s art piece and use this to tell their story, together the portraits and interviews form the fabric of a community connected through where we are and what we wear.
Hanging out on zoom with photographers Katherine Monaghan, Declan Connolly and Andy Yates, local people’s stories reveal their sense of what it means to connect with their neighbourhood.
Now the photographers and storytellers invite you to ‘hang out’ over on openeyestories.org.uk, where you’ll be invited to share your portrait and the story of your neighbourhood. Send an email with your name, text and images attached to declan@openeye.org.uk with the subject heading ‘Hanging Out’
Hanging Out is a collaborative project between Culture Liverpool and Open Eye Gallery as part of the River of Light Trail 2021.
