New Migration Stories: Valentina Bonizzi

Italian-born artist Valentina Bonizzi has lived in Scotland for eight years.

Using photography and video, Bonizzi aims to create what she has termed an ‘Image document’ to investigate migrant experiences from 1850 to today. Her work explores the transformational experience of migration, a transitory and fluid existence which challenges the individual sense of certainty of place and meaning.

The exhibition examines the potential of Migration Stories for raising questions about citizenship and belonging.
