The Coppersmiths Photography Exhibit

Photo Exhibition - The Coppersmiths The “Souq Al Safafeer” holds a unique historical and cultural status in Kuwait. Yet today, we sometimes overlook one of its most important values: the people of the market, and the workers who found community. They shared their stories with us and took us on a tour of their shops, which over the years had become refuges during their time away from their homeland. This work explores the interaction between people, material, and place, and reveals the migrant worker’s attempts to recreate a sense of familiarity and belonging through image. Location: Souq Al Safafeer — Shop No. 47 Opening Night: Monday, June 8, 2026 | 7PM Exhibition Dates: June 9 — June 10, 2026 Gallery Hours: 10:00 AM — 9:00 PM Poster design @samerbsaleh
