The aim of this exhibition was not to reach a descriptive illustration of International Humanitarian Law (IHL), a topic that is often seen as a dry, legal subject, but rather to re-affirm that IHL is everything but a theoretical topic. It concerns human beings, and the protection of their basic rights to life and dignity.

Every single country in the world has ratified the Geneva Conventions. Unfortunately, IHL is still too often violated and the continuing suffering of civilians shows that we are still far from universal compliance with the laws of war.
I believe that we, the artists, have captured the responsibility that we carry, as human beings, to ensure that wars don't become places of inhumanity.

In a few days more than 3000 people visited this exhibition, which provoked many debates and discussions between military officials, students, media and authorities.
