Arrivals and Departures : Made in Hull: Arrivals and Departures

Quick, Andrew John and Quick, Simon (2017) Arrivals and Departures : Made in Hull: Arrivals and Departures. [Performance]

Abstract

Made for Hull City of Culture 2017 this original work put a poetic spin on the history of arrivals in and departures from the city. The piece looked at the history of migration from a contemporary perspective, exploring the journeys which have gathered a population and moulded a landscape. Using The Deep as both canvas and building blocks the piece pulled together some of the strands of the complex and universal issues of migration as a wider subject matter. Created and comissioned as part of the Made in Hull opening celebrations for Hull City of Culture 2017.
