The Longing for Sea Change series contemplates the impact that memory, migration, and exile have had on the human landscape—both within and away from the African continent. Emotionally stirring and symbolic, the visual narratives address broader issues of humanity in moments of upheaval, fragmentation, and transition. They especially consider the impact that colonial, settler, and migration histories have had on localized populations and the links between peoples and places across the world. Yet, the works are also deeply personal in presenting individual perspectives and recollections that float between a sense of nostalgia, a longing for transformation, and the desire to belong.
