Abstract
Something of Who I Am is a photographic exhibition of The Lively Project. The Lively Project is an academic, cultural and public engagement project devised and led by Dr. Gemma Carney, social and cultural gerontologist and Paula Devine, ARK Ageing programme. Dr. Leonie Hannan provided her expertise on the exhibition and Gemma Hodge produced the art works. The photographs exhibited on this website were taken by Twy Miller.
In December 2016, our pilot Lively Project culminated in an exhibition ‘Something of Who I Am.’ The exhibition was held at the Crescent Arts Centre in Belfast. Curated by Leonie Hannan, the exhibition showcased participants’ objects, and Gemma Hodge‘s visual interpretations of their objects and interviews. Photographer Twy Miller agreed to take photographs of the exhibition. Twy did this beautiful work on a voluntary basis, and we are so grateful. Had she not taken the time to photograph our carefully curated exhibition, we would have no visual record of how all the pieces came together into a beautiful and evocative exhibition of the lives in time of Nora, Dessie, Bill, Drew, Anne and Carmel.
