Common Thread exhibition

From the front Common Thread is a poster exhibition whose primary goal is to explore how identity is influenced by one’s emotional ties with a certain country. Populations are more mobile than ever before and birth in a particular country no longer determines where one might live or settle. This means that the notion of us and them and the awareness of otherness might be more prevalent.
