"Silent Dialogues" by Anbuh and Vera Hadzhiyska: Photo Fringe 2024

In this two-person exhibition artists Vera Hadzhiyska and Anbuh delve into deeply personal yet universally resonant experiences, creating a dialogue between two distinct geographies—Bulgaria and South Korea. Despite their different contexts, the two photographers’ work intersect on the common ground of memory, change, and the emotional landscapes we navigate in times of transformation.

Together, these two projects form a cohesive exploration of how we as individuals and societies grapple with change, whether it be through the lens of migration, as in Vera's work, or the global upheaval of a pandemic, as in Anbuh's. Both artists use the familiar landscapes of their lives as a canvas to explore broader questions of memory, identity, and the human condition. In doing so, they reveal a common ground that transcends geographic boundaries—a shared human experience of navigating the complexities of change, whether personal, social, or global.

The physical showcase was on display at Aspex Portsmouth Gallery
