Place of Safety

18th - 29th July 2023

La Falaise Shelter, Bath Road, Ventnor.

Place of Safety is a painted installation that explores feelings of safety, shelter and belonging. Situated at La Falaise Shelter in Ventnor, the work has been co-created by the ideas of local communities and culminates in a display of installed painted abstract shapes and lights which invite visitors to walk around, sit inside and take photographs of what they see.
