Hope: Weaving Communities Together exhibition at Poplar Union

Hope: Weaving Communities Together is a project conceived by multimedia artist Elaine Foster-Gandey during the pandemic years. The project’s purpose is to look at ways to bring people together when we are all apart.

The work included over 500 marginalized voices including The Nepalese ladies’ group. The work toured the UK with workshops & performances held during the exhibitions.

After securing additional funding, Elaine was invited to exhibit the giant sculpture dress at the Venice Biennale. Pabitra was invited to work with Elaine holding workshops with her community that saw outcomes exhibited alongside Pabitra’s work in Kent & London.
