Becoming us

  • Welcome to ‘Becoming Us’, an interactive exhibition that invites you to see the world through our eyes, in our words, no-one elses. We are a group of young people, researchers and artists from all over the world and we have been exploring creative ways to bring people together. 

    Across 8 weeks of workshops we have interrogated what it means to build community, how our passions can connect us and what we want to say about the world. We hope you enjoy!

  • مرحبًا بكم في معرض "Becoming Us" ، وهو معرض تفاعلي يدعوك لرؤية العالم من خلال أعيننا ، بكلماتنا ،و لا أحد آخر. نحن مجموعة من الشباب والباحثين والفنانين من جميع أنحاء العالم استكشفنا طرقًا مبتكرة للجمع بين الناس.

    على مدار 8 أسابيع من ورش العمل ، استجوبنا ما يعنيه بناء المجتمع ، وكيف يمكن لعواطفنا أن تربطنا وما نريد أن نقوله عن العالم. نتمنى منك

    الاستمتاع!

  • Hûn bi xêr hatin 'Becoming Us', pêşangehek înteraktîf ku we vedixwîne ku hûn cîhanê bi çavên me, bi gotinên me, ne yên din bibînin. Em komek ciwan, lêkolîner û hunermendên ji çar aliyên cîhanê ne û em li rêyên afirîner digerin ku mirovan bigihînin hev.

    Di nav 8 hefteyên atolyeyan de me lêpirsîn kir ku tê çi wateyê avakirina civatê, hestên me çawa dikarin me girêbidin û em dixwazin li ser cîhanê çi bibêjin. Em hêvî dikin ku hûn kêfxweş bibin!
