Given the difficult situation of the refugees in Macedonia, IYNF and the Macedonian NGO LEGIS created an interactive exhibition about the issues of refugees.

After the Balkan route was closed, the refugees weren’t allowed to either go to or leave from Macedonia. They were living in camps, supported by some volunteers. They had no chance to establish a new livelihood.

Encouraged photographers, such as Nake Batev, Borce Popovski, Robert Atanasovski, Ivana Chaloska, and the drawer Shergo Musa, who is a Syrian Refugee, made some stunning artworks about that miserable situation. The exhibition is about looking at the refugee crisis from another perspective.
