July 2025 – August 2025
An evolving living exhibition about community resilience
Pieces of Us – is an evolving exhibition that celebrates the resilience of people. Built gradually over the summer, it invites individuals and families to contribute a meaningful object that represents a time when they found strength in difficulty, adapted to challenge, or needed to be resilient.
At the heart of the exhibition is a large-scale community still life — a growing installation made from donated everyday objects. Each object will be accompanied by a handwritten label and a personal story, shared by the person who contributed it, telling us about the moment it represents to them.
Together, these objects and stories form a quiet but powerful portrait of the local community’s courage, perseverance, and hope. They show that resilience is everywhere, it’s something many of us carry, quietly, every day.
The walls surrounding the still life installation will gradually fill with creative responses inspired by the objects. Each day and during workshops visitors will be invited to create responses to the exhibition. With materials provided. All contributions will be welcomed and displayed as part of the evolving exhibition, creating a collaborative and ever-growing celebration of community creativity and resilience.
