This exhibition highlights the causes and processes around Forgiveness, Reconciliation, Genocide and Oppression. Forgiveness and reconciliation have different meanings to different people in different situations, and need not presuppose each other. But both terms will always require active choice of use. Is it possible to forgive the unforgivable? This exhibition shows how ideas about forgiveness, reconciliation and conflict resolution can be used to positively affect people’s lives, by displaying personal testimonies from victims and perpetrators. Profound change, compassion and understanding are processes that take time. Experience shows that by inviting people to share their different perspectives they can create change and provide alternatives to conflict and revenge.
