La Espera – The Wait at Belfast Photo Festival
The project La Espera - The Wait will be part of this year's Belfast Photo Festival, with an outdoor exhibition at the Botanic Gardens from the 1st to the 30th of June.
Focusing on the moments of stopped time, the project documents the realities of migrants, refugees and deportees across Mexico, highlighting the temporality of their situations.
"The 2023 edition of Belfast Photo Festival explores how artists in the contemporary moment are interpreting the idea of ‘Journey’ as a subject of art. The festival features projects that approach this centuries old preoccupation from new and surprising angles: from works that chart global surges in civil unrest; re-trace epic pilgrimages; explore the passage of time; map out unwritten histories; and chronicle journeys of self-discovery that look inward rather than out at the world."
