TALKING… & OTHER BANANA SKINS addresses polarization. It encourages visitors to question their own perspectives. Conflicts and issues are multi-faceted, not to be pigeonholed. The artworks presented in the 8 chapters of the exhibition are asking how and what is being communicated within society and the urban environment. Putting exchange and dialogue back at the center.
