Far To Here

Still images of moving stories on the road from Darfur to Australia.

THE DARFUR AUSTRALIA NETWORK presents Far to Here, a joint photographic exhibition documenting the lives of Darfuri refugees now residing in Australia. In part one of the exhibition, photojournalist Kabir Dhanji captures the inner strength of the older generation who fled the conflict. In part two, Darfuri youth tell their own story, recording their day-to-day experiences on donated cameras. The result is a suite of images that spans the chasms between continents and generations a visual journey from war to peace, old to young and far to here.

Make sure you see Far to Here before it heads to Parliament House for Refugee Week.

Photos by Kabir Dhanji and members of the Australian Darfuri community.
