It's not discrimination by artist Chris Nies

i found this so interesting. as described on the website i found it on- "Over time people of all races have been in chains/shackles. (some still are)."

i think this depicts the idea that discrimination can be against all races not necessarily just what we may deem the obvious.

Summer Project 2011

Students coming on to the 2011/ 12 course are asked to respond to the idea of 'DiscriminHate'. This is in order that each student can submit a photo-based work to the Worldskills 2011 Exhibition in London.
http://www.worldskillslondon2011.com/

We are asking you to keep a sketchbook over the summer in which you will gather images and ideas that relate to the theme of ‘discrimination’- this may be age related, body related, gender related, race related- it is up to you how you respond to the theme.

The main aim obviously is to highlight a type of discrimination which you want to speak out against, and which you can imaginatively portray through your own photographic image.

Once you have been invited as an 'author' on the site, you can post images and ideas, and comment on each other's work, over the summer break. Click on Post Title at the top for an interesting link to the work of artist Marc Quinn- it's one artist's take on a form of discrimination he wanted to highlight. What issue will your photograph highlight?
