Kiara Mohamed – The Lives We Lead: now on display at Museum of Liverpool

Museum of Liverpool digital screens, 28th October – 11th November

We are delighted to share new work by Liverpool-based artist Kiara Mohamed, co-commissioned this Summer with Open Eye Gallery as part of our #covidcommissions programme How Will We Remember.

Photo and video series The Lives We Lead spans from the first lockdown and throughout the summer. It captures video calls between Kiara as he catches up with Black and brown people with what was happening in their lives, but also globally. It captured moments of our shared humanity, specifically in the way COVID has impacted on our lives and the global uprising of Black Lives Matter.

The first images are now on display on the digital screen at Museum of Liverpool, from 28th October – 11th November 2020.

The series will be acquired into our permanent collection, and exhibited in Salford during 2021.
