The end result is the Black Heritage: Narratives of Diaspora exhibition, which opened this month as part of the University’s Black History Month programme.
Contributors to the colourful exhibition responded to a callout for objects that relate to their diaspora. The objects on display include a map, photographs and artwork, textile pieces, cooking pots and ceramics. Each object is accompanied by text, written by the owner, to explain what the object is, what it means to them and how it relates to their diaspora.
The exhibition is open until 10 November and can be viewed 12pm-2pm on weekdays at Martin Hall Gallery. It is free to attend and no booking is required.
LU Architecture student Candis Boateng was commissioned to create special artwork for the outside of the gallery space.
