TThis theme explores how artists transform humble or found materials — cardboard, beads, market remnants — into carriers of memory and meaning. These materials speak to histories of migration, trade, and belonging, and to the ways everyday objects can embody resilience, identity, and the idea of “home.”

At its heart lies a broader question: how do we build a home together? Britishness, community, and multiculturalism come into play — what does coexistence look like, and does it truly work? The theme also reflects on the personal tensions of making a life here while maintaining connections to heritage, and how those negotiations shift over time.

Ultimately, this is an invitation to a meaningful conversation: about migration, belonging, and the evolving associations we each carry with the idea of home.

Panelists: Lakwena Maciver, Visual Artist and Kobi Prempeh, Photographer
