InsideOut: Photos by Migrant Workers in Singapore
 In conjunction with the M1 Singapore Fringe Festival 2006
Mar 12, Sunday, 1 to 230pm
 Singapore Art Museum (Glass Hall), 71 Bras Basah Road

No child dreams of becoming a maid or construction worker. But driven
 by poverty and a lack of opportunities, waves of Asians take on such
 work every year. InsideOut is a six-month project involving 31 workers
 from Indonesia, Thailand and the Philippines. They learnt the basics of
 photography and were guided to take photos of their daily lives in
 Singapore. Through their photos, we hope to learn from their
 perspectives and spark more interaction between host and migrant
 communities.

 During this talk, the organisers, photographer-instructors and workers
 will share their experiences and involvement in the InsideOut project.
 The organisers-- Alvin Tan (The Necessary Stage) and Chan Tse Chueen
 (Straits Times) -- will talk about bringing such a project to life,
 while some of the photographers and workers will share with us their
 perspectives and visual viewpoints.
