International artists working in Britain
CAA is delighted to host Home from Home an ambitious exhibition project which explores the ways in which creativity and making are interwoven with identity and a sense of belonging in the lives of 25 contemporary artist whose cultural inheritance originates outside England and who have come to live and work in the UK (post-childhood). These artists hail from across the globe and come from a variety of religious, ethnic, cultural and economic backgrounds. Yet they have shared a common experience: that of entering British society and working to make a place for themselves in a foreign culture.
