Foresight & Fiction, Hannan Jones
This exhibition encourages us to see possibilities beyond our immediate reality. Here, postage stamps are a vehicle to explore the in-between. Using philately as a way to re-imagine collective narratives and psycho-geographical aspects of landscapes, both physical and emotional. Detouring away from stagnant ideas of nationhood and territory, Foresight & Fiction opens up ways of exploring the periphery, the imagined, and the possible, moving towards notions of hybridity in cultural heritage.
Exhibition continues until 2 June 2024.

A love letter to the Nightingale, Elham Eshraghian-Haakansson
A multisensory poem exploring the fragility and elusiveness of place and experience, this exhibition captures the poignancy of memory and association integral to the understanding of loss or displacement. Through fragmented and poetic imagery, the artist highlights the paradox of survival and healing, inviting a critical discussion surrounding empathy, trust, custodianship, compassion, and social change. The artist engaged in an extensive period of reflective and collaborative practice with the community to create this body of work.
Exhibition continues until 2 June 2024
