Ivy Kalungi @ Pipeline Gallery

Rooted in the intricacies of grief, Between Two Places speaks of both personal and collective trauma. Spurred by the recent loss of a close family member, Ivy Kalungi explores what remains for those significant to us after passing and endeavours to understand how the wider black community copes with the reverberations of loss and trauma.  Included in this exhibition are installation and sculpture which represent tangible residues of life left behind. On one wall hangs an installation of dry raffia leaves, a material that roots back to Ugandan culture. Kalungi’s intention is to create an immersive space for reflection, inviting viewers to touch the fibres and listen to the sound of the leaves.
