IOM selects my artwork for exhibition

29/09/2023 Achievements

I am thrilled to announce that my artwork was selected by the United Nations International Organization for Migration (IOM) for an exhibition at the International Dialogue on Migration (IDM) in Geneva, Switzerland. The exhibition was held from October 5th-6th, 2023.

The goal of this exhibit was to highlight stories of migration and migrant stories. I was one of seven artists whose work was selected by the IOM to be displayed at the lobby of the event with digital screens.

My artwork is a reflection of my passion for photography and my commitment to creating meaningful art. It is an honor to have my work recognized by such a prestigious organization.

I would like to thank the IOM for this opportunity and all those who supported me throughout this journey. I look forward to continuing to create art that inspires and moves people.
