Coming out can be painless for some but stressful and even traumatic for others, including friends and family. A new exhibition to open in East London documents the experiences of ethnic minority individuals coming out, allowing them to express their experiences and difficulties with culture and traditions through the medium of visual arts.
The project involves the production and exhibition of photographic images of ethnic minority lesbian, gay and bisexual people, accompanied by text describing their experience -both positive and negative- of coming out.
