Fadi A. Thabet's photographs of life in Gaza arrived in Leeds quietly, and stopped people in their tracks.
Lens on Gaza: The Sun and Moon Still Rise presents an intimate visual narrative of life, resilience, and humanity in Gaza, through photographer Fadi A. Thabet’s own lived experience and work within the city.
This exhibition creates space to engage with stories that transcend borders. It is not only a record of lived experience, but a testament to humanity: to families, children and communities who continue to live, create and hope in Gaza.
Lens on Gaza: The Sun and Moon Still Rise is presented in partnership with Fadi A. Thabet, East Street Arts, Bethlehem Cultural Festival, Leeds Palestinian Film Festival and cultural producer Shazia Bibi.
With thanks to the support from Fresh Aire and Abu Bakr Supermarkets.
The exhibition is funded by East Street Arts, Bethlehem Cultural Festival, Arts Council England and the National Lottery Heritage Fund.
