Sony Global - The EYE SEE Serbia Photo Exhibition

The EYE SEE Serbia Photo Exhibition

The EYE SEE Serbia photo exhibition was held at Global Festa JAPAN 2013, which took place on October 5 and 6, 2013, in Hibiya Park, Tokyo.

In this photo exhibition, a number of the photographs taken by the 19 children who participated in the EYE SEE workshop was held in Serbia in May 2013 were exhibited. Messages to the children who took the photos were also collected, and were shown together with the photos. Thus, the photographer and the visitors were connected through photos in this exhibition. There were messages from many people, and some of them were directly handed to the children who took the photos on the occasion of the photo exhibition held in Serbia on October 17.

There were many visitors at the exhibition. We received messages to the children and donations to the EYE SEE project. The contributions will be donated in full to UNICEF to be utilized as a part of the operational fund for the future EYE SEE projects.
