SARAH COOPER: 

Art, because it illuminates imagination, it's a magic wand, it's a power.

 

GFX: ART + CHANGE

 

STEVE SHAPIRO: 

It's the things which emotionally get to you which change you, and where photography really has an enormous effect.

 

GFX: ART + HOPE

 

HELENE SCHMITZ: 

I was in the forest after wildfire. I see this scar. And this is of course a symbol of what humankind are, what we're doing to the wilderness. I just felt in my whole body I have to do something.

 

SHWAN: 

My work is so personal because I want to give people a deeper understanding of what it feels like to be a person on the run. 

 

GFX: ART + POWER

 

JON HENRY: 

Art has always been changing the world. When you strip race away, we're talking about a mother losing her son for no reason.  

 

That makes it a connecting point where people can understand it on a deeper level.

 

NINA GORFER: 

Women in many countries still don't have the rights that, it’s not equal rights, and we wanted to give voice to young migrant women. 

 

GFX: ART + TRUTH

 

STEVE SHAPIRO:  

It's not one of those situations where you know that everything is going to be fine. We are the people and we have to make this world better. And it's us.

 

NINA GORFER: 

By being able to touch people we can really, as artists, instigate that change, instigate that motivation, to start to maybe find your own power.
