Exhibitions

In the hands of a photojournalist, the camera becomes history’s eye

Sometimes, the most powerful stories are told without words. That is why Voices is proud to present five exhibitions that shed light on marginalised realities, including the precarious situation of migrant sex workers in Denmark, the routines of people with mental and physical disabilities in Moldova, the worry of people about the environment, or the dedication of journalists killed in Gaza.

Through the lens of young and courageous photographers, who have the ability to make distant struggles feel immediate and personal, these exhibitions offer an unfiltered glimpse into lives often overlooked, showing how visual storytelling can influence and inspire action.

You Still Don’t Know My Name

It is not known how many migrant sex workers and potential victims of human trafficking exist in Denmark at the moment. They often change names, phone numbers, and workplaces. Therefore, they are hard to count and follow. Their situations vary and defining whether someone has been forced into sex work is difficult. Some know that they will be doing sex work when coming to Denmark and some don’t. Some can travel freely between countries and some have their passports taken away by traffickers. Some are held by threats and violence, some by debt and some because they have no other choice but to stay.

Louise Herrche Serup and Sarah Hartvigsen Juncker visited 152 sex clinics to capture the everyday lives, longing, love, fear, and dreams of 35 migrant sex workers and potential human trafficking victims in Denmark.

Hidden Away

Patients must get out of bed at 6:30 a.m. Breakfast is at 8:30 a.m., lunch at 1 p.m., and dinner at 7 p.m. There are no activities in between. 

On a hill at the end of a long gravel road far away from society lies Moldova’s biggest institution for adults with mental and physical disabilities. Here live approximately 300 adults with varying degrees of disabilities, outside the small village of Bădiceni. 

Through these photos, Maria Høy Hansen unveils a window into the daily lives of those within Moldova’s largest institution for mental and physical disabilities, a remnant of the Soviet Union that the country has yet to modernise.

We Did What We Could, Remember Us

Journalists killed in Gaza
 
“Those who remain until the end will tell the story. We did what we could, remember us.” 
These farewell words were written on a hospital plaque in Jabalia, Gaza, in October 2023 by Dr. Mahmud Abu Nujaila. They reached us and remained among us thanks to journalists from Gaza.
From May 14 to July 18, 2024, the Croatian Journalists’ Union published illustrations on social media depicting media workers killed in Gaza. Among the deceased were reporters, editors, video editors, cameramen, secretaries, drivers—every worker whose efforts create and sustain the media. The action was also joined by the Association of Journalists of Bosnia and Herzegovina and the Slovenian Journalists’ Union, who published illustrations on their platforms as well. 
 
Through this initiative and this exhibition, the Trade Union of Croatian Journalists seeks to honor colleagues who were killed during the genocide in Gaza. They leave behind a legacy of struggle for free journalism and peace for the people of Palestine and Israel. Since 7 October 2023, at least 42,000 civilians have been killed in Gaza, including at least 180 media workers, according to the Palestinian Ministry of Health.

From Reporting Chaos to Reporting House

In times of war, chaos is both reported and manipulated. While independent journalism strives to document reality, propaganda distorts it — amplifying fear, fueling division, and serving political agendas. This exhibition explores the fine line between truth and manipulation, highlighting the crucial role of free media in times of crisis.
 
The immersive experience recreates the atmosphere of manipulation, blending historical propaganda with real journalistic reporting to expose how narratives are shaped and controlled.
 
Curated by the Balkan Investigative Reporting Network and the award-winning team at Organizirano Oblikovanje, this exhibition is a lesson in resilience, a call to action, and a defense of independent journalism.
