Shifting in Place explores the transience of space experienced by artists whose identities, communities, and memories are deeply tied to a land that once was. Our histories and memories are situated within the familiar physical landscapes that inform our relationships and identities. Though change is inevitable, the world has been experiencing enormous change globally at an unprecedented rate. This exhibition features work that documents these shifts, exploring how identity and communities are constructed within the context of ephemeral memories and a rapidly changing landscape under globalisation.
