YOUNG EYES. ANDREA METE

April 26 – May 5, 2011 - Chelsea Art Museum

Young eyes is a photo exhibit that will take you in a fascinating journey in our everyday life. Each photo is a moment, a stolen moment that surrounds us daily and that we do not notice. The artists eyes have captured these moments, and these moments have been seen at the same time by children. They will paint to show us what we have been missing and what they see in every photos, so that we can see again the simplicity, the beauty of life with no prejudice.
