Transitions exhibition

I am organising an entirely student led exhibition at the triangle space next week titled 'Transitions'. It seemed timely because of the erasmus exchange applications and students talking about travelling abroad to get new ideas etc..It also seemed the most sophisticated way in order to explore my own interests of how travel affects an artists practise and if I could challenge the notion of returning to the homeland to discover your roots or if you could 'find yourself' somewhere completely different. This exhibition would allow artists to discuss their issues concerning displacement/ identity/ home and journeying and hopefully gain insights/understanding through crits of work and how works are placed next to each other in the exhibition.

Inspired from the notion of travel and the affect it has on artist’s practices, this exhibition showcases a collection of artists responding to themes of transition, displacement and home. Participating artists include: William Phong-Ly, Marleen Boschen, Charles Chung, Neba Khodyer and more.
