INTERSECTIONS attempts to interpret the traditional, cultural and technological influences which are crucial for understanding today’s globalised societies, where identities and social relations are constantly being challenged. This exhibition facilitates the crossing of these paths to allow new connections to be made.

This is the inaugural launch of what will be an annual event featuring artists from these three locations.
