New Hands, Same Plate

This body of work by the artist explores the human stories behind forced migration, conflict, and war, with a particular focus on the experiences of children—often the most vulnerable in these crises. Through expressive imagery and symbolic elements, the artist delves into themes of trauma, resilience, and the pursuit of refuge.

Believing in art as a tool for reflection and empathy, the artist uses visual language to amplify silenced voices and draw viewers into these urgent narratives. This exhibition serves as both a tribute to resilience and a call for greater compassion and awareness of today’s humanitarian challenges.
