Seva Canada, a Vancouver-based eye-care charity that works in developing countries to eliminate global blindness, is marking its 30th anniversary with Beyond the Darkness, a photo exhibition by Canadian documentary humanitarian photographer, . Many of the internationally award-winning images that will be showcased are from the countries where Seva is involved, such as Tibet, Nepal, Tanzania, Bangladesh, Mali and China. Dr. Louie is an optometrist and photographer whos photos have often been described as realism at its best.
Larry Louie has a distinctive style, straddling the fine line of a photo journalist and a documentarian. His images are as rich and evocative as the subjects (on) which he focuses, said Sarah Cho, competition director of the IPA/Lucie Awards.
Beyond the Darkness is free and open to the public from April 23 to May 12 at the HSBC Pendulum Gallery (885 West Georgia). For full event details go to .
