Divided Selves: Legacies, Memories, Belonging

Herbert Art Gallery & Museum

18 February 2023 to 24 September 2023 (10:00 - 16:00)

Description

Divided Selves explores notions of belonging and living together at a time when the idea of nation is under stress, threatened by challenges ranging from populism to armed conflict. Held at a time where the politics of identity have been weaponised for political gain, and divisiveness is rewarded in likes, followers and votes, it presents the work of artists exploring how we: • Make peace with difficult histories and traumatic pasts without being paralysed by them • Listen to and amplify voices that are often ignored or suppressed • Work as citizens of a state, and members of a community, to shape a common future
