Urban Transitions: Re/Imagining Deptford
The London Borough of Lewisham has a population of 300,000+ residents [ONS]. It is a diverse borough, with more than 30% of residents born in countries other than the UK. In addition to English, a range of languages are spoken by its residents, including: Albanian, Arabic, Bengali, French, Italian, Kurdish, Portuguese, Spanish, Somali, Turkish, Polish & Vietnamese.

With a focus on migration, Urban Transitions explores imaginary spaces, which encompass the memories and connections to place and culture that people carry with them through their everyday experiences. The project is a collaboration between local residents and the A-Maze Arts Collective.
