Attend the event "In Conversation: Kirsty Mackay" at The New Art Gallery Walsall in Walsall on May 18, 2024, where Kirsty Mackay will delve into her practice and The Magic Money Tree project. Through collaboration with various groups and individuals in England, documentary photographer Kirsty Mackay sheds light on the impact of the cost-of-living crisis and the face of poverty in one of the world's wealthiest nations. By engaging with children, families, and youth groups, particularly in Tipton, Bristol, and the North-East of England, Mackay guides them in honing their photography skills, empowering them to express their voices effectively. The focal point of this narrative is the voices of children, shared through a combination of photography, text, and banners, culminating in a powerful piece of protest art. This collective creation challenges viewers to ponder the role of politics in perpetuating poverty. Admission to this thought-provoking event is free of charge.
