Mouth That Roars and Autograph presents #think, a pop-up display of new photography and films made by young people.
The works shared were produced over a few months of creative media workshops, with participants working alongside established photographers and filmmakers to explore complex issues of identity and human rights.
Although media is form with which these young people feel familiar, in the age of ‘fake news’ many felt it misrepresents them and reinforces prejudice, stigma and stereotype. By making their own film and photography work, the creators have challenged these representations by telling stories and creating images that depict how they want to be seen in the world.
The works on display include portraits, Polaroids and collages, made in collaboration with artist Aida Silvestri and Mouth That Roars.
For 30 years Autograph has engaged with diverse groups and communities to explore issues of identity, representation, social justice and human rights through photography and film.
At our gallery and in the community, we create welcoming spaces for people to share experiences, make artwork and become inspired by contemporary photographers and our unique archive.
Everyone is welcome at Autograph. Our building Rivington Place is an accessible space with a step-free entrance at street level, and a lift to all floors. Unisex, accessible toilets are located on all floors.
