We Shall Overswim

ISIS proudly presents We Shall Overswim by Borjana Ventzislavova, a new commission produced as part of our At Home in Europe project.

During her three month residency at ISIS Arts, Borjana developed We Shall Overswim based on collected stories from people with different national backgrounds and social status living in the North East. Some of them moved for political, economic, religious, or educational reasons, some for love or family.

This multi-channel video installation, identifies different aspects of migration and brings together contemporary nomadic concepts of being 'at home'. It premiered at Berwick Film and Media arts Festival, Berwick upon Tweed, 30th November 2008.
