About this Event
Join us in the courtyard at Krowji for 3PM for a special circular photo walk around Redruth with photographer and visual storyteller Abdelrahman Nabahin, as part of our Refugee Week celebrations.
'My name is Abdelrahman Nabahin, a photographer and visual storyteller from Gaza, Palestine. I am currently based in Cornwall, where I study Documentary and Editorial Photography at Falmouth University. For me, photography is not just about creating images, but a way of understanding and expressing reality, and a tool that anyone can use to communicate and see the world more deeply.
I studied journalism in Gaza and worked as a freelance photographer with several local agencies. Due to difficult conditions and periods of escalation, I began learning motion graphics and video editing to work online. During recent events, I continued documenting using only my phone, driven by my belief in the importance of photography in conveying human experience. I also collaborated with artists outside Gaza to transform these moments into visual work.
Now in the UK, I am developing my practice with a focus on identity, memory, and resilience, while also sharing my knowledge and experience in photography with others and encouraging people to use it as a tool for expression and connection.'
If you love taking photographs, take a stroll with us around Redruth and try your hand at some Active Looking Challenges, we finsh back at Krowji for the opening of 'Courage!' An Arts Lab Showcase celebrating creativity, community, and the powerful voices of young artists aged 9-17 with lived experiences of displacement.
