Seeking sanctuary.
“Wendy Couchman’s exhibition on sanctuary was deeply moving in its capacity to bring a multitude of materials and media together to invoke and make visible lives too often banished to a cruel void.”
Wayne Veck, Professor of Education,

“Seeking Sanctuary is a thought-provoking series of installations by artist Wendy Couchman, to interpret the experiences of young refugees through her own artistic lens. Her delicate, multilayered works, using fabric, light, and paper, create pieces that evoke the fragility of life in the face of forced migration. Objects such as forgotten or discarded toys, combined with shifting textures and shadows, stir a powerful emotional response.”
