Extra[Ordinary] Portraits Digital Exhibition
This digital exhibition can be used at your Holocaust Memorial Day (HMD) activity. It showcases [Extra]Ordinary Portraits, a collection of 30 artworks by young people (aged between 10-25) that reveal the ‘extraordinary elements of seemingly ordinary people’.
To mark Holocaust Memorial Day, we partnered with The Royal Drawing School to launch the [Extra]Ordinary Portraits competition, which asked young people (25 and under) across the UK to learn about someone affected by the Holocaust, genocide or identity-based persecution and create a portrait of them. These portraits cover a wide range of topics, spanning from the Holocaust to examples of modern-day persecution.
View all the portraits in the exhibition gallery here.
