Liron Leibu - Take a Sad Song and Make It Better
Take a sad song and make it better. Somewhere in Brandenburg, Germany. December, 2021.
Part of Memories Carried
“As a child living in exile, images were all we carried with us; they were all that carried our memories” Yamam Nabeel
Memories Carried is a touring photography exhibition and campaign, bringing together photographers from the Arab world and across Europe to raise funds for grassroots human rights and humanitarian organisations in Occupied Palestinian Territory and Lebanon.
Each photographer has donated a selection of images, which have been produced as a series of collectable prints specially for this campaign, priced at £50. With each print sold, 100% of profits go straight to the charity partners: Al Haq, Al Mezan, Health Workers for Palestine and The Dr Ghassan Abu Sittah Children’s Fund.
Each image is produced as an archival print on fine art paper at A4 size.
About the Artist
Liron was born in Israel in the closing days of the 1970s. He grew up and lived in Israel until 2014 when he moved to Germany. He considers himself very lucky to have had the opportunity to start photographing professionally before digital cameras took over. Throughout his life, Liron has always strived to see and understand the less evident parts of the social picture. His drive in taking pictures is to convey something to the world about what is not obvious but present and usually obscured by normality.
