Travel shapes how we understand the world, both personally and collectively. This exhibition brings together a diverse array of objects, from East Asian scrolls to contemporary photographs, to look critically at how travel is remembered and represented through art. How do artists depict the journeys they or others have made? And how do traveller’s record and remember their excursions through objects?
