The project premiered at Ex OPG Festival in Napoli, a space historically engaged in cultural production, community practices and forms of resistance.

The installation unfolded as a visual dialogue between Gaza and Naples, presenting parallel fragments of everyday childhood within a shared spatial experience.

The work was presented as a site-specific installation, where images were arranged to create a continuous visual sequence.

The spatial configuration allowed viewers to move between two realities, experiencing proximity and distance simultaneously.

Between Gaza and Naples is a project by
Mahmoud Abu Qaraya and tylerdurdan*

Ex OPG is a former psychiatric hospital transformed into a cultural and social space, hosting independent artistic and community-driven initiatives.

Each projection is not just a viewing moment, but an act of attention, a way to keep this story alive, visible and shared.
