'Unrest on the Nile' brings together pieces by 11 Sudanese artists about the political unrest in the African country since the 1990s. Most of the works left Khartoum a day before the bombings began in April 2023.

The paintings, first housed in the Brotéria gallery in Lisbon, have been exhibited since last Thursday at the Madrid headquarters of Casa Arabe. Artists like Eltayeb Dawelbait represent “the beginning of that period of political unrest,” describes the curator. “The "Art reflects people's lives and in our work everything that happens to us comes to light, what happens to our family and friends,. what happens around us," says Dawalbait.
