Let the stories of twelve poems that explore migration, belonging, identity, and resistance enter you as you fix your gaze on the wall.
About this Event

Visa Stories on the Wall is a poetry exhibition featuring twelve poems that explore migration, belonging, identity, and resistance. The exhibition brings stories of Nigerian migrant graduate students into a visual and public space, inviting visitors to encounter migration as an experience of searching for home, negotiating identity, and resisting oppression. Rather than reading the poems on a page, visitors are invited to slow down, fix their gaze on the wall, and encounter the stories through words, space, and visual form. The Exhibition will open on November 17 and run till November 20. Food will be served during the Opening.
