Who Am I? Photo Exhibition at Powerscourt Centre
Written by Down Syndrome Ireland and Powerscourt Town Centre launch ‘Who Am I?’ photo exhibition.
Unique photography exhibition
This unique photography exhibition celebrates the diverse interests, skills and aspirations of people with Down syndrome. ‘Who Am I?’ was launched as part of our World Down Syndrome Day celebrations on March 21st. The exhibition will take place in the Powerscourt Townhouse Centre, 59 William St South, Dublin 2 from the evening of WDSD and will be on display until April 20th, so if you are around DublinTown pop in and see it!
Highlights talent & skills
This project, took two-years to make and was devised and curated by members of our National Advisory Council which comprises of people with Down syndrome from around the country to represent the views of their peers within the organisation. The message behind the exhibition is to highlight the diversity and depth of talent and skills this community of adults enjoy and have. Photographer Eric Molimard is the man behind the lens who captured a strong connection with a lived experience in each person’s life and each Council member had responsibility for choosing the idea and location of their individual photograph.
Once the exhibition is complete, the photographs will be made available to branches around the country who wish to display the exhibition in their area and continue this awareness raising project that celebrates Down Syndrome adult community.
