PARALLEL TALES:
Refugees in Iceland and those who have supported their struggle for the past months, share their experience through text and image. Icelandic creatives then mirror with their own art works. As a whole the collection reflects on the distance created by government between people’s realities, the distance they use force to uphold, and looks at the humane connections we can create between one another, despite massive differences in background and culture.
Differences aside we all have something that unites us.
