Women, holding "half the sky", are still oppressed worldwide. Economically, women earn only one- tenth of the world's income. Emotionally, women are barred from expressing themselves, as two-thirds of the global illiterate population.
Lensational is proud to present its first photo exhibition. Photos from the photography workshops held in Hong Kong, Myanmar and Pakistan will be displayed, hoping to highlight some imminent issues faced by local women and the change of photography education on them. Contributors include our founders and Lensational’s participants of photography workshops. All proceeds will go to the participants and our partner NGOs. This can empower women on two levels: (1) emotionally through freely sharing her stories with the world; and (2) economically through additional income from selling photographs.
