Settling

Exploring Human Migration in Stoke-on-Trent

Settling explores the different stories of people who have moved to Stoke-on-Trent from around the world. Stories include the life journey of World War Two veteran Walerian Tyminski, Pat Phillips the wife and business partner of a local artist, and Aida Haughton’s story on finding love in post-war Bosnia & Herzegovina.

These twelve diptychs include individuals’ own family album images, which are shown alongside a portrait created by Ivin, reflecting on the experiences that have bought them to Stoke-on-Trent, the city they now call home.
