About the event


We hereby cordially invite you to attend the opening of the exhibition In the darkness lies light... by Roxana Albu.

In 2022, Roxana Albu began working to highlight the humanity of homeless people in Utrecht through her painting. The collected images in this exhibition portray people experiencing homelessness. The portraits are - in Roxana's words - sketches of a precious moment in contact with another, but also of the loneliness that comes with this existence.

For several years now, the City of Utrecht has seen an increase in homeless EU migrant workers and with it the need to shelter these people. Roxana's works serve as one of the means to break the stigma surrounding these and other target groups dealing with homelessness. This is an important shared goal that we are happy to make space for.


You are welcome on January 7, 2025 from 5:00 pm at the City Office in Utrecht, Stadsplateau 1.

We hope this work will lead to more people being able to open their hearts to the person often sitting right next to them, because that connection allows us to continue to see each other's humanity. Without judgment, without shadow, just for the person we all are, despite the circumstances we find ourselves in.


With warm greetings,

Rachel Streefland

Councilwoman
