Home, My Place in the World - summer exhibition
The borough of Wandsworth has for many centuries been a destination for migrants. In partnership with the Wandsworth Museum, an amazing collection of contemporary photographs will explores concepts of migration and 'home' via the best images from the first three years of the annual YOUMANITY Photography Award. Over 50 striking images will be featured in this first-ever exhibition of award entries, created by photographers from across Europe. From late 21st June, the exhibition will also showcase three works by the winner of this year’s Award.
Launched in 2008, YOUMANITY is a non-profit multi-ethnic organisation based in London, which was set up to foster cultural and professional exchange and innovation between communities across Europe. The Accademia’s commitment to nourishing an international artistic dialogue is reflected in its annual photography award – an art prize designed specifically to promote cultural diversity and to encourage and celebrate emerging artists.Works by the following photographers will featured in the exhibition:
