Artists Annie Greenwood, Hsin Tien, Huayu Zhang, Kirstin Harvie and Isobel Richards present an exploration of what it is to belong.

This exhibition – a culmination of our time studying at the University of Leeds – delves into the complexities of belonging, not belonging, and simultaneously belonging inside and outside of place, class, institution, memory, seasons and society.

A sense of belonging is a vital part of life for everyone. It is a process comprised of multiple layers; it is to feel familiar, have shared experiences, and know we are among people and places who know us.

From landscape painting and portraiture, to abstraction, moving image, sculpture and site-specific installation, our work weaves its way through these complexities as we all travel a journey of questioning what it means to belong.

The five of us – working and residing in Leeds – will showcase our final manifestation of our time on the MA Fine Art course at our degree show this September.

Find out more about the artists and exhibition.

Join us for a Private View on the evening of Tuesday 2 September from 6 to 8.30pm to celebrate the launch of our degree show. All welcome! RSVP to fincomms@leeds.ac.uk.
