As we near the close of 2024, this exhibition stands as a reflection of our deep yearning for peace-an ode to reconciliation between
The world around us feels heavy with images of conflict and devastation: families torn apart, entire population uprooted, and a rising tide of violence that seems to replace diplomacy and understanding.
From Africa to Europe, the Middle East to Asia, war resurges, leaving us questioning how to hold on to our shared humanity.
What, then, can art offer in this fractured landscape?
Art reminds us of peace-not as an abstract ideal, but as a quiet, universal joy found in moments of connection and clarity. It challenges us to step beyond our differences and reflect, with humility, on our shared values.
It is a call to action, softly spoken yet deeply resonant: to confront our privileges, transcend divides, and strive for understanding.
From Marrakech, Morocco, this exhibition is both a wish and a promise: a hope for an end to the cycles of destruction, for unity beyond nationalism and greed, for a future that celebrates life in all its richness and diversity. As we approach the holiday season, it offers a chance to payse-to reflect on what truly matters, and to recommit to peace, dialogue, and humanity.
May 2025 bring not just the turning of a calendar, but the turning of a page.
