Exhibitions
DAAR: Stateless Heritage
226 Cromwell Rd, London SW5 0SW, UK
The mosaic rooms host Stateless Heritage, an exhibition aiming to challenge mainstream narratives of refugee experience, of humanitarian crises, victim-hood and suffering, proposing a new, radical perspective of exile.
The works in the exhibition, curated by artist and architectural collective DAAR (Decolonizing Architecture Art Research), focus on Dheisheh refugee camp in Palestine, proposed as a UNESCO world heritage site, in a call for official international recognition of the cultural heritage of the refugee.
A space alongside will host events by activists, artists and thinkers.
