We are beyond thrilled to announce the Tape Letters Scotland Exhibitions will be launching in October!
The Edinburgh exhibition will launch on October 2nd. It will then open to the public to run until February. The exhibition is free to attend.
Drawing directly both from first-hand interviews and from the informal and intimate conversations on the cassettes themselves, the upcoming exhibition platforms the experiences of members of Scotland's Pakistani community. It explores topics of identity, family, migration, communication and language.
About the project:
Tape Letters Scotland is a social history project that highlights the practice within the Scottish-Pakistani community of recording and sending voice messages on cassette tape between the 1960s-1980s. The exhibition platforms the stories uncovered from cassette tapes and interviews from Edinburgh’s Pakistani community.
