Performing Ourselves

An exhibition of self-portraiture by hospice users developed in partnership with Rosetta Life.

We are launching a self-portraiture competition and invite hospice users across the UK and internationally to submit work for what will become an exciting on-line and touring exhibition.  We are particularly interested in images that explore the identity of people living with dying.  The exhibition has been initiated by Rosetta Life artist Robin Blackledge, who developed the idea in hospices across London.  Selected images will appear on our website and be included in the touring exhibition.
