Ed Cross is delighted to present Foreign Lands, a joint exhibition bringing together the work of two artists from the African continent – Ermias Ekube, Ethiopian born Eritrean; Eric Pina, Senegalese – now resident in Sweden and Germany respectively. Touching on issues of assimilation as well as notions of identity and cultural “ownership”, the exhibition explores ideas of encounter and environment, considering how the “foreign” landscapes absorbed and manifested through each artist’s practice tell stories about their own past and current realities.
