Swapped At Birth by Ahmed Elkhalidi and Rua Hashlamoun

No more showings

Ahmed Elkhalidi is a Jordanian/Australian artist whose paintings, photographs, designs and digital collages explore the crossover of life, perception and memories from one's own birth country and one's second country, which is sometimes by choice and at other times by circumstance. Ahmed's work, with creative collaboration by Rua Hashlamoun, records his personal stories of what 'home' means. It can be a physical or a psychological place that changes - a place of belonging or a place of displacement and confusion. The artists draw on memory remnants of childhood along with new images that are embedded from their lives in Australia. A visual storytelling; the exhibition will resonate with and facilitate connections for many who have similar experiences as migrants or refugees.
