About
‘Seeing it First Hand’ seizes on those moments of heightened awareness, witnessing the stories of life’s humanity played out in the lives of the world’s everyday players.
These moments are immediately recognisable to every person who sees them – snapshots of life at a point, both beautiful and complicated.
