Description

Organized by the Permanent Mission of Nicaragua to the United Nations Office and other international organizations in Geneva.ย 

ย 

The Permanent Mission of Nicaragua wishes to organizeย a photo exhibition consisting of pictures depicting the daily life, meetings and interactions of people in San Marcos (Nicaragua) and Biel/Bienne (Switzerland).

The exhibition LiensLazos consists of 9ย "pairs" of photos (18ย pieces in total) taken by the Nicaraguan photographer Iara Vega Linhares. These pairs of images aim to describe the lasting affiliation between peoples in San Marcos and Biel/Bienne since 1986, when a group of young Biennois travelled to Nicaragua in order to collaborate and live with local communities. The various portraits recorded by the photographer bear witness to the connections of solidarity and affection between people from the two cities, despite being distant geographically and in their daily realities. As such, the photos show contrast, but also bring closer these two โ€œuniversesโ€. ย 
ย 

The exhibition will be on displayย at the Communal Space, E Building, 3rd Floor - Door 40.ย From 24 October to 9ย November 2017.
