Nearly three years in the making, (In)Visible Portraits is a powerful celebration of Black women sharing their stories of struggle, resilience, celebration and more. The film – which makes its television premiere March 2 on OWN: Oprah Winfrey Network -- shatters the too-often invisible “otherizing” of Black women in America and illuminates the history of how they got here, celebrating their extraordinary heritage, and igniting hope for the next generation. According to director/producer Oge Egbuonu, (In)Visible Portraits unapologetically affirms Black women and offers a poetic invitation that says ‘I see you, I hear you and you matter.’ Oge calls the film “a love letter to Black women and a re-education for everyone else.”
Prior to creating (In)Visible Portraits, Oge Egbuonu produced LOVING (the critically acclaimed, Oscar-nominated film starring Joel Edgerton and Ruth Negga about Loving v. Virginia, the Supreme Court case which legalized interracial marriage in the United States). Oge also previously held a seat on the board of the Diversity Committee for the BRIT Awards, where she collaborated on revamping the voting academy and tackling diversity within the music and film industries.
Oge Egbuonu can discuss her motivation in creating (In)Visible Portraits, her wish to help Black women in America reclaim their voices and give recognition to the work they do.
