The Sacred Paths. Photography Exhibition from the Middle East.
2013. Sep. 27. - 2013. Nov. 03.
Sacred Paths presented the work of thirteen Middle Eastern photographers, divided into three sections entitled The Body, The Land and The Leader. Most of the exhibiting artists are also renowned photojournalists who have documented their travels in different countries of the region with their photographs. The exhibition focused on the symbolic, political, social and personal meanings of the term ‘road’ rather than its physical-geographical manifestation. It highlighted the overarching collective social behaviour fuelled by a constant desire to belong.
