On Friday 19th February 2010, Borderline Gallery will open a special exhibition named ” Just Peace (Keeping Hope Alive)”. The show explores the lives of refugee people living here on the Thai Burma Border. The work has been created by three talented Karen artists who all reside in Umpium Camp, four hours drive from Mae Sot. Both Saw Moorah and Saw Saintdom utilise charcoals and acrylic to produce striking images of light and shadow, whilst Saw Kupaw workes with gentle watercolours, creating dream like landscapes. The trio take the viewer on a vibrant journey through Umpium, and allow you to be witness to not only their hardships and poverty, but also their hopes for a peaceful future.

Please join us to enjoy the show at the opening reception 6pm to 9pm on Friday 19th February.The exhibition will continue until 2nd March 2010.

Complimentary Burmese refreshments will be provided by Borderline Tea Shop
