Real people, real needs

In collaboration with UNHCR, photo.circle curated and organized a mobile exhibition titled ‘home,’ by photographer Kashish Das Shrestha that traveled to all seven Bhutanese refugee camps in Eastern Nepal in April 2009. A larger exhibition on refugee situations around the world by 9 photographers including Zalmai, Christian Als, NayanTara Gurung Kakshapati, Edwin Koo, Ashok Shakya and others was exhibited in June in Kathmandu to mark World Refugee Day 2009. Both these exhibitions were ground breaking for Nepal in terms of introductions to creative ways of curating and managing photographic work.
