Part of Platforma Festival 2025, in partnership with Counterpoints Arts
Following its debut at French Riviera Gallery and a series of workshops at Rich Mix in London, Bridging Landscapes returns with a powerful new iteration in Peterborough, showcasing international artists from across the UK.
Zaineb Abelque, Sarah Ali, Mohammed Adel, Aya Haidar, Haroun Hayward, Sofia Karim, Rehan Jamil, Kalpesh Lathigra, Amak Mahmoodian, Mohammed Tariq and Anusheh Zia.
This exhibition explores the complex and deeply personal experience of migration—whether lived directly or passed down through generations. It reflects on the emotional landscapes we carry with us: stories of movement, memory, identity, and belonging.
Bridging Landscapes II speaks to the shared diasporic experience—the passing down of culture and language, the effort to rebuild and re-root, and the quiet strength found in unfamiliar places. It asks: What do we carry forward? What must we let go? And how do we strengthen the ties that connect us, rather than accept the divides that pull us apart?
Through a curated programme of workshops and artworks, the exhibition offers space for storytelling, reflection, and healing. It invites audiences to engage with the present through empathy and imagination—toward a future built on connection, not separation.
