Art That Moves You

In All Directions you discover stories about identity and happiness, about crossing borders and being forced to flee, about saying goodbye and coming home. Contemporary art and historical objects show how people are constantly on the move. They illustrate how themes such as love, goodbyes, home and happiness connect to migration. They tell stories of the past, present and future. Stories about borders and stories without borders.
