Exhibition: Invisible Hands

The exhibition The Invisible Hands looks at the migrant workforce which were farmers in Jersey. The exhibition covers their story, lives living and working conditions. These types of workers were hugely important to the farming industry in jersey. However the migrants works weren’t hugely remembered or documented.

The exhibition was done by artist Alicia Rogalska and The Morning Boat.

The exhibition featured 3 different sections from:

  • A video explaining about the project and some of the stories behind the people.
  • A transcript which was being printed in the wall with the 8 points ( requests on how to improve living conditions for the polish workers
  • A set of images taken by the migrant workers e.g. their bedrooms, selfies – these images look at the different conditions and how the workers felt.
