We all feel shame, sometimes. It's a universal feeling, not confined to any community or demographic. However, through discrimination and ignorance, too often minority groups are shamed and stigmatised.
Curated by Paul McDonald (he/him), this group exhibition is part of World Pride 2023, and explores themes of strength, courage, diversity and ultimately pride in who we are. This exhibition celebrates our LGBTQIA+ communities and invites audiences to consider dignity and resilience in the face of adversity. Including photography, works on paper, multimedia works and textiles, this group of artists examine the shared experience of shame and create a safe space for visitors to engage in a dialogue around acceptance, love and understanding.
