PICTURE YOU, PICTURE ME
by Emer Gillespie Picture You Picture me is a portrait project between mother and daughter: Emer and Laoisha. Each take turns directing the other on where and how to stand and even facial expressions and the result is a playful and personal look at their relationship.
(see overleaf for details)
Be part of our exhibition!
Emer and Laoisha are inviting you to become part of the exhibition at Riverbank Arts Centre. Once you’ve visited the gallery and seen all the wonderful photos in the exhibition you are invited to take your own with an adult. It can be your father, mother, sister, brother, aunt, uncle, grandfather, or grandmother….. You choose! Using a digital camera, smart phone or tablet, take turns to take a photo of each other, and then put the two photos side by side using any of the freely available apps. It could be a photo of you doing what you love best or visiting a favourite place. You decide. Then when you are happy with the image you can send it to us to add to the digital exhibition! You can send the images to pictureyoupictureme@riverbank.ie Or upload directly on the website www.riverbank.ie/pictureyoupictureme/ submit-photo/www.riverbank.ie/ pictureyoupictureme/submit-photo/ Remember you must get an adult to help you with this project.
