I am so excited to be exhibiting a selection of images from my series Homesick as part of the Being Human Festival alongside incredible artists and creatives. This exhibition showcase works that question borders, migration and belonging, to promote empathy, challenge perceptions, and celebrate diversity. Below is a brief description of the work that will be on display.

UNBOWED: An exhibition of powerful self-portraiture by Ukrainian women refugees working at Creative Response. 

HOMESICK: An exhibition of new work by Elizabeth Ransom, UCA PhD candidate, exploring stories of homesickness from women and non-binary immigrants. 

PUTTING OURSELVES IN THE PICTURE: An exhibition of work by 21 refugee and migrant women and non-binary people, created during a year-long mentorship project with Fast Forward, Autograph, Work Show Grow, National Galleries of Scotland, and Impressions Gallery. 

FLUID BORDERS: A collaborative artwork using the cyanotype method, created by artist Maria Kapajeva with people who fled their countries due to the full-scale war in Ukraine.
