Journeys of Belonging
Exhibition 22nd of May 2027

Newport Museum and Art Gallery 

Journeys of Belonging will explore how migration has shaped the social and cultural identity of Newport, South Wales. Through paintings, prints, and installation, alongside historical material and community contributions; the exhibition will share personal stories of movement, settlement, and adaptation. It will highlight challenges such as language barriers, cultural traditions, and creating connections in new communities. Centred around the lived experience, the exhibition will examine how migration influences identity, belonging, and community life, inviting visitors to reflect on shared histories, present-day realities, and Newport’s diverse, evolving identity across the generations and communities living in the city today.

If you are like me, an immigrant living or working in Newport South Wales Uk, I would love to hear from you. You can be part of this exciting event which will bring many communities together.

Borders and Transition a group exhibition on Havelberg – Germany

10 September -8 October 2023 Galerie Stadtinsel

The content of the exhibition delves into the relevance of borders in the current global world context, relating to the artist’s experience of migration. It highlights the broad interpretations of borders in political, social, cultural and biological contexts. Additionally, it emphasizes the importance of adjusting psychological and stylistic boundaries in art.

To be confronted with a dual culture is like living in a contrast between illusion and reality; the art suffers a process of creation and destruction which can be viewed superficially as having a relatively simple configuration, but with a high degree of content.

In art – stylistic boundaries: / fantasy / reality / representational / abstract / surreal , etc are an infinity of ideas that can be explored.

The exhibition will feature various art forms. The group of artists in this exhibition have lived, experimented and explored with this theme in art, with form, colour and stroke shown with paintings, drawing, objects, sculpture, photography and graphics.

I have been invited to take part in this exhibition by Britta Lehmann and Heinz Sporkhorst, the organisers and artist participants.
