WOMAHR exhibition in Campobasso explores women, peace, and security through art

The exhibition WOMAHR (Women_Art_Human Rights) opens in Campobasso, Italy, marking 20 years since the UN Security Council resolution establishing the Women, Peace and Security Agenda. The show presents works by international artists addressing women's roles as resources in peace processes rather than victims. Featured artists include Kurdish Iraqi artist Alì Assaf, whose painting transcribes the first article of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in Arabic calligraphy; Virginia Ryan, who creates shields incorporating photographs of women; Italian artists Giosetta Fioroni, Paola Gandolfi, Stefania Fabrizi, Debora Hirsch, Massimo Orsi, and Sana Tamzini. The exhibition uses diverse media to invite reflection on rights, crossing political and geographical boundaries.
