Double Exposure Student-Led Project

  • Katherine Chong

A student-led volunteering project curated by me and four other UCL geography students. The project aims to empower formerly homeless people through photography helping participants to regain self-confidence and realise their creative potential. This form of art therapy gives them a creative outlet to share their own narratives and showcased their hard work with an exhibition at the end of the program, hosting MPs, magazines and respective CEOs. As one of the project leaders, I was heavily involved in the creating, leading and directing of the project. I was in charge of Social Media Management and Communications as well as volunteer wellbeing amongst student volunteers. http://studentsunionucl.org/articles/bigger-picture-not-just-art-exhibition
