Head to HOME for a special panel discussion inspired by Roots in the Sky, the art exhibition currently on display at HOME.

Curator and artist Tunji Adeniyi-Jones will be joined by exhibiting artists Jade de Montserrat, Ivy Kalungi, Elena Njoabuzia Onwochei-Garcia and Shaqúelle Whyte to explore the themes of the exhibition.

Together they’ll talk about heritage, mythology, identity and the Black diaspora through painting, sculpture and drawing.

The conversation will be chaired by writer and art historian Aurella Yussuf, who will guide the discussion and share her own insights into how Black artists build community and create new spaces for critical thinking.

A brilliant chance to hear directly from the artists, ask questions and connect with the ideas behind the artwork.
