Abstract

This paper will discuss the outputs and findings of three recently completed creative history projects, which worked in participatory ways to explore and visually respond to the lives of Black people living in Georgian and Victorian era Britain. All three projects were (or became part of) the Hidden Presence initiative founded by Sobers, and each approached the topic in starkly different ways. Sobers was involved in both projects in different capacities, therefore this paper employs an action research methodology and critical reflective practice.
