'Belongings' is a group exhibition featuring the work of 20 artists from the West Midlands, all of whom explore themes of identity, journey, heritage and multiculturalism in their diverse practice. Among the artworks on display will be paintings, photography, weaving, textiles and ceramics.
Challenging notions that we only belong to one space, this show will celebrate layered stories and memories, multiple senses of self and the idea of physical and emotional 'belongings'.
