Discover Mauritius through photo prints

Explora invites you to discover Mauritius through a series of photo exhibitions featuring local photographers, large canvas prints and beautiful images of the island. These exhibitions celebrate the landscapes, nature, beaches, sunsets, wildlife and night skies that make Mauritius such an inspiring destination for photography.

Photography is about freezing a moment in time. Through these exhibitions, visitors were able to experience Mauritius from different perspectives, meet passionate artists and enjoy a curated selection of images displayed in several venues around the island.

The exhibition brought together more than 14 Mauritian photographers, each presenting selected works printed in large format on canvas. Visitors also had the opportunity to meet the photographers, discuss their work and support local artistic talent.

Whether you love photography, nature, travel or Mauritian culture, this exhibition offered a special way to rediscover the island through the eyes of local artists.
