‘IDENTITY’ – FERENS ART GALLERY, HULL
A collaborative exhibition holding discussions on what identity means to us and what it means to the communities in hull, and how our multiple and fluid identities are represented in the Ferens collection. Myself and other creatives worked together to choose pieces from the collection to produce an exhibition, as well as our own works which were in response to the themes of identity. We held tours and worked with artists during workshops, with members of the public.
