A Museum of Journeys in a Chest of Drawers:

The project unites two diverse and stigmatised communities through interactive artworks and story-telling.

Through a programme of workshops led by artists Sharon Campbell and Rachel Ramchurn, participants produced artworks inspired by personal effects and memories that represent their individual journeys.

By sharing stories, this project aims to: Assist in building support networks for those affected by migration, isolation and poor mental health. Challenge xenophobic and mental health stereotypes through artworks that identify shared human experiences.
