Nobody's Listening | Exhibition opening


[01.10.2021]


The exhibition »Nobody's Listening« creates an immersive
environment that generates greater international awareness of the
events of the 2014 genocidal campaign and its profoundly
devastating consequences for the Yazidi people, Christians as
well as other minority religious groups and their cultural
heritage in northern Iraq.


»Nobody's Listening« contains a Virtual Reality experience that
commemorates the Yazidi genocide committed by ISIS in the summer
of 2014 in northern Iraq. Seven years after the genocide, this is
a forward-facing exhibition that focuses on what needs to happen
next. It provides a platform for survivors and displaced people
to tell their stories, display their expressions of painting,
sculpture, and poetry – and make their voices heard about what
actions are still needed.


The ceremonial opening of the exhibition will take place as a
hybrid event, both streamed and live. Both political voices and
survivors will speak and give an insight into the current
situation.
