A Dark Horse in Low Light, by Angela Rosete, Journey To, and collaborators, explores how photographic technology has reinforced racial inequality from the first camera to current social media filters. Three friends, all young women of colour, challenge each other in their quest to belong. They come to realize that the ingrained bias in photographic technology has defined them as ‘other.’
Continuing our partnership with the NTS Festival, SummerWorks is pleased to offer the artists who created A Dark Horse in Low Light the opportunity to further develop their work with a group of professional artists and a Summerworks audience.
