Join MSF at the Oxo Gallery
In Autumn 2025, at the Oxo Gallery on London’s Southbank, we hosted two photography exhibitions celebrating our life-saving work.
From the Ashes, I Rose
This exhibition took us on a journey to the MSF hospital in Jordan to learn about the restorative work we do and celebrate the stories of our patients’ healing, recovery and rebirth.
We partnered with Egyptian photographer Rehab Eldalil and the international festival of photography, Cortona On The Move, to bring an exhibition celebrating the resilience and strength of patients at MSF’s reconstructive hospital in Amman, Jordan.
This hospital provides specialised rehabilitative care to war-wounded patients from across the Middle East, including medically evacuated children from Gaza. There, the team provide surgery, physiotherapy, mental health support and prosthetic fittings.
From the Ashes, I Rose confronted the devastating effects of warfare on civilians in countries such as Palestine, Syria, Iraq and Yemen.
Yet instead of focusing on the suffering of patients, the photographer worked with them to reinterpret their experiences as profound acts of resilience and resistance. Their injuries, depicted as sources of strength and empowerment, metaphorically transformed into superpowers.
