Future Pasts is Henna Asikainen's extraordinary project with people new to the North East. Together, they have discovered local landscapes along Hadrian's Wall in a series of community walks, resulting in a beautiful and thought-provoking body of work drawing threads between migration, occupation and landscape from Roman times to today.
We invite you to immerse yourself in the rich and layered exhibition to reflect upon Hadrian's Wall as a metaphor that resonates with migration and belonging, nationalism and borders. It is a chance to celebrate the connections made through shared journeys, the long history of migration that has formed the UK, and the beauty and fragility of our local landscapes and ecosystems.
Please sign up here for the exhibition tour. This helps us to create a welcoming environment for everyone.Thank you!www.d6culture.orgFuture Pasts will be open to the public on Thursday 6 and Friday 7 July, between 12pm and 4pm.
Also by Henna Asikainen, Delicate Shuttle (produced by D6 in 2018) will be reinstalled at Newcastle Contemporary Art as part of the MSA Communities & Change Exhibition, 3-7 July.
