Artist Talk with Rich Wiles

In the UK, we are familiar with the news headlines and the photographic images of the so-called ‘refugee crisis’. But what happens after displacement to those who are resettled and try to rebuild their lives? What about personal stories, and the relationships that form between new friends and new neighbours? And how do people hold on to loved ones and a past life that they had to leave behind?

In Which Language Do We Dream? will offer fresh insights into these issues, through the photographic perspectives of a Syrian family with first-hand experience. This multi-stranded exhibition presents an intimate perspective on the lives of displaced people: one in which displaced people themselves tell their own stories.

Rich will talk through the project, and answer questions about the work as part of a live Q&A.

Free event, donations welcome.

This hybrid event will take place in the gallery and be live streamed online. There are a limited number of in-person tickets available - please select this option when registering if you would like to attend the live talk at the gallery.
