This year, 18 participants were selected through an open call, including 9 people who shared their migration experiences in written form and 9 artists who transformed these stories into creative works of art.
This edition emphasised the power of collaboration, fostering meaningful connections between writers and artists who worked closely together to interpret and bring these personal narratives to life.
