Migration, Memory and Identity

  • October Books 189 Portswood Road Southampton, England, SO17 2NF United Kingdom (map)

What does it mean to be part of a diaspora? How are our identities shaped by physical locations? Where is ‘home’ when generations move through continents over time?

Inspired by contemporary artists featured in the landscape exhibition Soulscapes (Dulwich Picture Gallery, 2024) and the artwork of the South African-South Asian Kutti Collective, the workshop will provide space to explore your own connections to political geographies and the natural world through writing poetry.

Liz Amos and Susmita Bhattacharya will work with themes of memory, joy, belonging and transformation to explore experiences of land and legacy.

This event is aimed at BPOC people, free entry and suitable for 18+.
