The RefugeLiverpool Arab Arts Festival 2026 – Photography exhibition(In collaboration with the Exhibition Research Lab Gallery at John Moores University)
Through the eclectic perspectives of contemporary photography artists, the group exhibition The Refuge reflects on the notion of ‘home’ in the context of today’s Arabness. Each work explores nuanced stories of displacement and longing, whiler evealing home as a paradox in transition – whether rooted in place and territory, carried through family and sociocultural heritage, or shaped by memory, movement, and lived geographies.
