Return in dignity”, under this motto the SOLWODI program started in 1992 for women, who wanted to return to their home country. Politically and socially, little has changed for SOLWODI’s clients. They are still the ones most affected by poverty and violence. But they are also still the women who, with an almost inexhaustible energy to ensure that they can offer their children a better future. 23 clients have allowed their return process to be monitored and published over the last 10 months. From this feedback, collages have been created that provide insight into the new beginning in their home country. They let us share their worries and fears, but also their pride in what their pride in what they have already created. 37 artists are participating in the exhibition. They have dealt with the lives of the clients and transformed them into impressive works of art. As a medium they have used painting, photography, sculpture, collage and installation.
