The "Inside out" project began in July 1997. Between then and February 1998, around 40 homeless people living in Budapest were given simple color disposable cameras and invited to take photographs of whatever they felt to be important or interesting in their everyday experience, knowing that their pictures would later be shown publicly as part of an exhibition and web site. In order to reveal the original intentions of the authors, we recorded an interview with each photographer about their pictures and attached them to the pictures. We didn't edit the language used in the interviews to conform to a grammatically correct standard and, where possible, tried to translate the peculiarities into the English texts. Due to the kind support of our sponsors we were able to recompense the participants for their work. |
