The multimedia exhibition “Invisible Lives” created by the Rucka Art Foundation tells about the visually impaired people living in Cēsis and their experiences. The community of the blind in Cēsis has existed for several decades, and once a well-maintained quarter with a factory, residential buildings and recreation areas was created in the city for the needs of the community. The exhibition, whose works have been created by 15 photographers from Latvia, Serbia and Montenegro, reveals the everyday life of its representatives through the eye of the camera and allows them to approach their lives with documentary, metaphorical and poetic techniques. The exhibition is complemented by a soundtrack – the favorite sound recordings and excerpts from the interviews of the people seen in the photos.
“People with visual impairments are invisible in the most direct way of life. They do not always take place in the dark, as only part of the community is completely blind. Some visually impaired people live with varying degrees of visual impairment; Visual impairments are individual, as are people ‘s daily and colorful lives, and are invisible to the “visible” society, as they take place “out of sight” – in a narrow, closed environment, “says the curator of the exhibition Līga Lindenbauma.
The exhibition is open free of charge until June 5, 2022. It is accessible to people with visual, hearing and movement difficulties. The works for the exhibition were created by photographers Boris Abramović (RS), Elīne Buka (LV), Irena Čučković (RS), Aleksandra Drečun (ME), Paulis Jakušonoks (LV), Sara Kecmana ), Stefan Kosanović (RS), Monta Krūze (LV), Duško Miljanić (ME), Ana Mitrović (ME), Darko Sretic (RS), Eva Strazdiņa (LV), Nada Vojinović (ME), Nicole Lee Zvaigzne (LV) and Miloš Zvicer (ME).
