FOTOFEST: “RESILIENCE IN EXILE: THE UKRAINIAN REFUGEE EXPERIENCE” PHOTO EXHIBIT

The Cultural Center- Our Texas in collaboration with FOTOFEST proudly announces the opening of a poignant photo exhibit, “Resilience in Exile: The Ukrainian Refugee Experience”. This exhibit, featuring the compelling work of photographer Vladimir Frumin, offers a deep, emotional insight into the Ukrainian refugee crisis.

The photos capture the stark reality of displacement and loss faced by refugees, symbolized through personal items left behind. This exhibition, supported by the City of Houston and the Houston Arts Alliance, is not just an artistic endeavor but an educational and cultural experience, highlighting the resilience of the human spirit in times of turmoil.

Visitors are invited to engage with these powerful stories and reflect on the ongoing conflict’s impact. This exhibit promises to draw a diverse audience, providing a platform for understanding and empathy toward the Ukrainian community.

This photo exhibition is a part of FOTOFEST Biennial 2024.
