A multi art form installation about different ways of being.


Kickstart Arts’ Portraits of Invisible People takes us on a physical, emotional and intellectual journey through the personal stories of people whose lives have been changed forever due to a brain injury.


The show asks its audience to consider the nature of fate, memory, grief, truth, and relationship through extraordinary storytelling, metaphors of space, experience and time, video, stunning photography and sound. Kickstart Arts, Headway rebuilding lives, community participants and artists collaborated to develop a deep, heartfelt personal story telling that offers powerful insights into what’s most important in life.


From late February 2010 four professional artists have worked closely with people living with acquired brain injuries, their family members and support workers to explore what life is like if you have a brain injury. Project curator/writer Richard Bladel, photographer Sean Fennessy, filmmaker Troy Melville and designer/builder Uwe Feiste have collaborated with these community members to draw out their unique and profound perspectives on life.
