The In Sight Project

The In Sight Project is a unique photography project highlighting the issue of homelessness through the lens of those who have directly experienced it. The aim of the project was to raise awareness about homelessness and funds for the Dublin Simon Community. Over the course of 12 months, 45 members of Dublin's homeless community were provided cameras and photography training and asked to take photos that tell their personal stories of homelessness, that show the world through their eyes. A month long exhibition of their work was held in Powerscourt Centre, Dublin in May 2016. A second outdoor exhibition was held on the railings of St. Stephens Green for 2 weeks in November 2016. The full range of photos from the project are available to view and purchase at www.theinsightproject.ie. To date we have raised €5,000 for Dublin Simon Community.
