The topic entitled Shelter invites you to take an in-depth look at the spaces, times, virtual and physical havens, and relationships in which you find peace, joy, and escape from stress and external or internal discomfort. A shelter provides a space where we can be ourselves without fear of our surroundings. At the same time, shelter is a place for social and political comfort, a place where people find peace to relax and resolve their own situations. Let us look into your idea of a shelter for others or for yourself, into a safe space.
