Alberta Whittle - Hope & Glory: Encountering Welcome

Sat 30 Apr - Sun 29 May 2022

Cultivating hope through a diasporic lens

Urbanflo Creative and Phoenix Art Space proudly present the inaugural Brighton exhibition featuring the stunning, provocative art of multi award-winning international artist, curator and researcher Alberta Whittle

Living and working between Barbados, Scotland and South Africa, Alberta’s creative practice is informed by diasporic conversations and motivated by the desire to work collectively towards radical self-love, through film, sculpture, print, installation and performance. 

This unique collection of recent work, curated by Jenni Lewin-Turner, explores very timely themes relating to personal healing and the cultivation of hope in hostile environments. 

As part of the Culture ConneX programme, celebrating our shared heritage and global connectivity, the exhibition will be virtually linked to partner gallery The Brighton Storeroom, based at Brighton Plantation in Barbados.
