Unseen America

Unseen America
is a project that gives cameras to working people, allows them to work
with each other and a professional photographer, and asks them to go
out and document their lives. The images the workers produce convey to
us what is important to them. Unseen America
makes working people the creative subject of the images rather than the
passive object of a professional photographer’s lens. Their images
reveal lives and a humanity and creativity almost completely hidden in
America.
