Being Human
The sea at night is too big!
By @gonzalo_orquin

From November 22, 2023, to February 15, 2024, the Brussels Migration Museum hosts “Being Human – The sea at night is too big,” an exhibition by artist Gonzalo Orquín. This event is part of the Spanish presidency of the European Union, commissioned by the Spanish embassy in Belgium.

The exhibition, conceived by Francesca Paci and inspired by Spanish portraiture, sheds light on the stories and experiences of migrants, focusing on arrivals by sea in Lampedusa, Italy, and via Bihac, Bosnia. Orquín’s portraits aim to give a voice to these often overlooked individuals, fostering empathy and understanding.

The opening will be on the 22nd of November 2023 at 11AM at the Museum of Migration in Brussels. For more information, visit mmm.brussels or gonzaloorquin.com and use #BeingHuman to share.

Film 🎥 Une jeunesse italienne par @mathieu.volpe

Une belle soirée au MigratieMuseumMigration ✨ "Une jeunesse italienne" raconte l'histoire de Sokuro, fils d'immigrés burkinabés installés en Italie et Nassira, future épouse de Sokuro. Une histoire d'amour à distance traversée par les réalités de l'immigration, des procédures administratives, de la difficulté du travail et des conflits familiaux. Un film dur et doux qui dresse le portrait d'une jeunesse italienne méconnue.

Merci à Mathieu Volpe, réalisateur, pour sa présence 🎉
