The traveling exhibition “Your Lens. Your Story. Our Europe!” has made its way to Tirana, showcasing 18 winning photographs from the Western Balkans at the House of Europe.
These winning images emerged from the “WeBalkans” Photo Contest, which attracted 180 remarkable submissions from young talents across the Western Balkans. The jury expressed that these exceptional photos resonated deeply, highlighting the ability of sports to unite Europeans, promote shared values, and celebrate diverse identities.
The three young photographers from Albania are Klevisa Kapo, Fiqiri Mejdani, and Nerion Bino, while from Kosovo, the winning photographers are Fillojetë Maloku and Nevron Skënderi.
Each photograph tells a distinct story filled with movement, passion, and perspective, showcasing the youthful creative spirit in the region. Following the selection process, the exhibition commenced its journey starting in Belgrade on June 10, then moving on to Podgorica, Tirana, and continuing to Maglaj, Pristina, and Struga.
In August, the EU announced that the public would have the chance to vote online, allowing everyone to select their favorite images, with the top 6 young photographers winning a trip to one of the EU capitals.
Initiated by the WeBalkans program and supported by the EU, the exhibition in Tirana was open to the public until July 29. (August 3)
