Angels and Muse proudly invites you to the final presentation for our current cohort of residents-Akumbu Uche & Michelle Umobong. To close their successful residency with Angels and Muse, the pair will present works that invite reflection on the psychological costs of migration in an exhibition titled “Here, There and In-between.”
What does home mean? Is it a place? Is it a feeling? Or is it transient? Why do people leave all that is familiar to make a new life elsewhere? And what becomes of their memories both old and new? These questions and more are what “Here, There and In-between” invites us to consider.
“Here, There, and In-between” invites you to reflect on migration as a physical move and all that it entails through poetry and personal narratives. It also asks you to consider the meaning of home through the lens of a people’s culture as tempered over time and all the many shapes and forms it takes.
