NOW, FOR THE FUTURE: Exhibition Install & Launch Photos

Now, for the Future - a Shutter Hub exhibition with Open Eye Gallery, Liverpool, part of LOOK Photo Biennial.

Our perception of the world is influenced by our environment, our education, our history, and the stories we are told. Photography may be the most accessible and inclusive tool we have for communication. We can use it to share images that reflect on the world we live in, images that hold people together, encourage creative thoughts and provoke positive actions. The more we know and understand, and the more we find in common with others, the more likely we are to succeed.

Now, for the Future asks, can we create a visual language that draws from the past, exists in the moment, and sets a positive course for the future? International photographers examine the myths and fables of the now – will the stories we tell today survive to be the folklore of the future? And, could Now, for the Future be a visual handbook for our emotional survival?

Now, for the Future runs throughout November 2019 as part of LOOK Photo Biennial at Open Eye Gallery and is presented by Shutter Hub with Open Source.
