“Refugee Artists in New Haven” – Yogasai Gazula

August 16, 2016 by Yogasai Gazula

The photos below are from the exhibition “Stories from Far and Near: Refugee Artists in New Haven” at the New Haven Museum and Historical Society (which runs until September 10th). The show features pieces covering a variety of art forms, from sculpture and painting to mixed media and photography – all made by refugee artists in New Haven (hence the title). It is poignant and beautiful all at once.

This hanging installation,  Mama I Don’t Know How to Swim,  is made of boats created by Syrian refugee children, and designed by architect/artist Mohamad Hafez.
Paintings by Wurood Mahmood

Masks made by Johnny Mikiki Bombenza, and a quote by Moussa Gueye.
