‘Eye in the Eye’ presents an intertwined vision that combines cognitive, artistic, and cultural dimensions. Usually, photographers show their topic in visual language, highly differing from the verbal narration. This is why they often formulate their theme in a symbolic way through which the artists open a harmonious space for the recipients to make reinterpretations. These interpretations are open to several ideas and perspectives, which is one of the main objectives of the project.

The project focuses on social development, integration, and the interaction of migrants from Syria in Gaziantep with the host society. This project is formulated within a framework that aims to show how art is used through a contemporary cultural vision to serve society.
