Exhibition explores Iraqi women's experiences of war

Curated by the Iraqi Women Art & War Group, the Museum of Oxford will be exhibiting the ’Of Ordinary Things’ exhibition from 1 April until the 24 September 2022. 

This is a multi-artform exhibition featuring works by members of the Iraqi Women Art & War group. Iraqi Women Art and War is a women’s community group based in Oxford. 

It gives women who have been affected by conflict an opportunity to process their experiences and tell their stories through art. 

The pieces in this exhibition have been created by IWAW members. They aim to capture the everyday, the lives that people try to live in the shadow of conflict, and above all how women experience war.
