Ten Years of Conflict as Seen by Sixteen Syrian Photographers

The date of 2021 marks a decade of war in Syria, a tragic conflict which has killed and wounded hundreds of thousands of civilians, and forced millions more to flee their homes. There are now more than 13 million Syrians, both internally displaced and refugees, having to survive on humanitarian aid.

The group exhibition by sixteen Syrian photographers features their own selection of photos and texts presenting the experience of the people of Syria over the decade, with images conveying the drama of the conflict, and others showing the strength of the people and their hopes for a future of peace.
