Find Direction Home – An exhibition about belonging.
Presented by Stirling’s Gossip Collective in partnership with emerging artists from across the world, some of whom have created a new home in Scotland.
GOSSIP Collective (Graduate Opportunities Supporting Sustained Independent Practice) is an artist-led non-profit organisation that works to provide opportunities for creatives. The group was formed in 2017 and is based here in Stirling,
The work in this exhibition looks at collective ideologies, and concepts of community based on living conditions, culture, and family, from a range of perspectives. Various themes of ‘home’ are explored, viewing identity through lenses such as class, gender, traditions, and world politics.
In this exhibition, the artists aim to encourage the audience to think alongside them as one, as we collectively face new global challenges. By sharing similar struggles and lived experience from different part of the world, the artists aim to foster understanding.
Curation: Lesley Mcdermott and Zefeng Li
Artists:
Yarden Fudim | Handy | Song Long | Zefeng Li | Toby Francis Maddison | Edie Preece | Robin Finch Pickering | Peilin Shi |Joe Tebb
