The Synthages – by George Gittoes
George Gittoes, the 2015 Sydney Peace Prize recipient, shares some of his latest work with you here.
These synthages were created at Syracuse Light Work during his 2013 residency. In these Gittoes combines drawing with photographs from his work at Kibeho in 1995. In two weeks it will be the 20th Anniversary of the Kibeho Massacre in Rwanda and Gittoes hopes that these works can be useful as a reminder for contemplation.
