We invite you to come and explore the works in the Art of Peace: Art After War exhibition with Kit Messham-Muir.
The Art of Peace: Art After War is a thought-provoking exhibition featuring nine artists who have created artworks shaped by living amongst the horrors and aftermath of war and conflict.
The exhibition brings together artists from Bosnia and Herzegovina, Rwanda and Timor-Leste to explore how visual artists address the trauma of war and life after conflict. In the last thirty years, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Rwanda and Timor-Leste each emerged from different versions of social and human destruction caused by the genocide of hundreds of thousands of people. Understandably, peace following war is hard work, and life in a post-conflict society is very different in each of these countries.
