"A Question of Vision" exhibition and photo project, Leicester

Brian Negus, a photographer from Loughborough, Leicestershire,  has launched a new project around visual impairment and photography in Leicester.

The project, "A Question of Vision" was launched yesterday, 4th Feb 2015, at the Vista Shop in Hotel Street, off Horsefair Street in Leicester with an opening reception.

Some of Brian's work is being exhibited at the shop until 24th February, so this is a rare chance to enjoy some fine photographs by a photographer with sight loss.

And there's more. At the reception, a number of young people with sight loss were given cameras so that they can pursue their own photographic projects, with help and advice from Embrace Arts, Leicester. A second exhibition will appear at the end of the project of the young people's work.

More information on Vista's Facebook page.

Brian has also given an interview to Radio Leicester , and I understand that we can expect a full feature in Saturday's Leicester Mercury.

I find it exciting that our interest in photography is getting some traction in the mainstream media.
