ImMigration is a collaborative project that asks artists to respond to the complicated and layered themes around migration as part of unique visual exploration.

As a natural process, migration brings to mind compelling images of caribou herds, butterfly swarms and flocks of birds. Human migrations occur as reactions to disasters from crisis, fear, hunger, political upheaval or war, with whole populations suddenly becoming refugees, endangered, and homeless.

The impact of change and transition on the environment, on culture, language and on history is an eternal process that begins with the process of migration. Each artists’ triangular print is a uniquely personal response to these themes and ideas, interpretations and interactions which presented together as a group create a dynamic visual mosaic.
