Action Art in Sudan.
For many in South Sudan, the arts have become a rare haven of peace in a young country that has known little but civil war. A group of artists are campaigning for peace, with pop-up street performances and murals across the capital, Juba. The activists have taken the name Ana Taban, or “I am tired,” in Arabic. “We are tired of this, the constant fear, the war,” said Manas Mathiang, 32, a musician and artist who leads the movement.
