Art during wartime.
The Streets of Afghanistan is a public art installation that aims to immerse viewers in the busy streets of Kabul and the roads of rural Afghanistan through a combination of life-size photographs, video projections, live music, kites, and — most importantly — people.
The exhibit was supported by a Kickstarter project that reached its funding goal just a few months ago, and has since gone on to stage five successful shows and two photo installations at historic sites across Afghanistan — from Kabul’s historic Darulaman Palace to the heavily damaged village of Istalif.
According to the creators’ most recent project update, the largest exhibition took place at The Barbur Gardens in Kabul, which over 1000 locals came to visit on the installation’s second day.
