Us+Them Exhibition

Isle of Bute, 27-29th of October 2017

This exhibition was created in partership with Emma Thomas and Aidan Canavan, and showcasing work about issues of migrations and providing a space for open conversation surrounding the current refugee and migrant crisis. Symbolised by a white flag embellished with the words “Who are they? Who are we?”, the profound display of artworks will speak about the invisible borders that the human race have managed to create throughout history.After the EU referendum and the US election, the flags will act as a catalyst to discuss global division and the “growing fear of the stranger”. During the exhibition a workshop was held. The workshop was exploring issues surrounding refugee and migration through writing. The workshop was run by Loll Junggeburth who is the editor of RAUM, an international poetry magazine based in Glasgow.
