Tajikistan art studio a home away from home for Afghan exiles

Description

The dozen or so Afghan refugees gathered, pencils in hand, in this small studio in Tajikistan are taking part in something that back home would expose them to reprisals from the Taliban: drawing. Leaning over their sketches, the students of refugee street artist Omar Khamosh, many of whom are women, apply themselves to portraits and landscapes evoking the country they left most often under duress.
