2024 Exhibition

SOAS


African and Asian Diasporas: Culture, Politics, Identities


 


Creative Project Exhibition






The Act of Making Home is an onsite and virtual exhibition —by and for students— which traverses the collective, complex processes of creating a sense of home within the learning for migration and diasporas. Works in this exhibition are creative projects from students of the module in SOAS, 725 African and Asian Diasporas: Culture, Politics, Identities A23/24. 
Through diverse mediums, the featured artists explore the multifaceted experiences of cultural identity, belonging, and the reimagining of home in a globalised context. This exhibition is a tapestry of narratives, each revealing the resilience, adaptation, and creativity inherent in the diaspora journey. It explores how cultural practices construct and thus express personal and collective identities.
