TRIBE – What’s your Story?
The tribe is a source of fascination in a world where globalization and population displacement poses the crucial question of identity and belonging. Inclusion is vital to our happiness so the tribe attracts. Now, as in times past the tribe becomes a way of connecting and sharing important information and ideologies. By sharing a heritage, collective conscience, or common values the tribe embraces us and becomes a significant and recognized factor in our social fabric. Crossing the globe in search of the places where people meet, engage and form special relationships the 2015 exhibitions look back at the past and investigate the present, searching for the unique stories we all weave. Tribe asks what it means to belong and questions how we identify as individuals, both as a choice and as matter of circumstance.
