Our work
We are 50 artists from Central and Eastern Europe based in the UK, Europe and USA working across photography, video, performance, painting, sculpture, textiles and installation to explore the evolving nature of home, belonging and identity. We exhibit, publish and make collaborative work together, delivering a range of community engagement initiatives to build safe spaces for connecting, learning, grieving, imagining and re-building.
Film from our largest exhibition to date at Copeland Gallery in London, UK, where we took over a 4,240 sq ft space, designing the inaugural show for their latest programme and offering free talks, workshops and sharings
for audiences.
