Seen, is a new photography exhibition featuring 22 powerful portraits that bring into focus the lives of blind and partially sighted people.  The exhibition is a collaboration between the RNIB and photographer Joshua Bratt.

Over the last two years, Joshua has travelled the country, meeting people with sight loss and capturing their stories through his lens. These portraits reveal the extraordinary lives of blind and partially sighted people: individuals thriving in their careers, pursuing their passions and overcoming barriers.

RNIB Connect Radio’s Toby Davey was there for the launch of the Seen photography exhibition on Thursday 11 September 2025 and caught up with Barrister Jessikah Inaba about what it was like having her portrait taken by Joshua and exploring the tactile version of her portrait too in Temple Hall in London.

If you're in London this weekend, free tickets are still available for Saturday 13th and Sunday 14th September. Book here: Seen Photography Exhibition Tickets, Multiple Dates | Eventbrite

Well lit, with white walls and ceiling, the photos hang along the wall with additional spotlights above. Tall bar stools and tables are set up in the middle of the space, waiting for visitors to come in and enjoy the space.
