Hannah’s paintings of Nigerian women were exhibited with their self-portraits in Lambeth Palace, the home of the Archbishop of Canterbury November 2018 - February 2019.
The exhibition launch was attended by Pramila Patten, the UN Special Representative on Sexual Violence in Conflict, and Lord Ahmad of the UK government (Special Representative on Preventing Sexual Violence in Conflict (PSVI) and Special Envoy on Freedom of Religion and Belief).
The portraits were created to tell the world the truth about what is happening to women in Northern Nigeria and to bring justice and change for them and the countless others they represent.
The exhibition was also exhibited in Westminster Abbey November 2019, alongside Open Doors’ ‘Handmade Petition’. The exhibition sought to highlight the double vulnerability of women from religious minorities who are targeted both on account of their religion and their gender. The paintings have since been exhibited in Liverpool Cathedral in July 2022 and Southwark Cathedral November 2023.
