Making the Midlands Home
Sam Ivin
26 March - 7 April 2024
Making The Midlands Home features three portrait projects that explore human migration byphotographic artist Sam Ivin. Each one features photographic portraits that have been playfully decorated by Ivin. Work includes, Settling 2017-2019, Punjab to the Potteries 2023 and his latest commission, Making Solihull Home, 2024. This exhibition provides a unique opportunity for audiences to see the three commissions together, side-by-side for the first time.
Human migration is one of the defining issues of our time. Beyond the emotionally charged
headlines and statistics are everyday people’s stories. Learn how Aida Haughton found love in post-war Bosnia & Herzegovina, or how the Zoria family fled the Ukrainian war to start a new life in Solihull.

Geoff is a local resident from the nearby village of Brinklow and has always had a passion for art and design.Having found he had more time at the start of 2020, he decided to try the art medium of acrylic paints, producing different styles and size canvas, tiles and wooden boards and decided to see how it progressed. All the paintings are one of kind originals on a deep edge canvas with a resin/varnish finish. You can also view Geoffrey's work on his facebook page: Geoffrey's Art.
