Opening at Stonehenge Visitor Centre on 15 February until 7 September. This exhibition showcases the work of three emerging artists—Sally Barton, Serena Burgis, and Yuxi Hou—who explore the meanings communities derive from prehistoric stone circles and how these special places resonate with young people today.
In partnership with English Heritage, as part of their youth engagement programme, Shout Out Loud, the exhibition offers a platform for the creative reinterpretation of prehistoric sites. Exhibiting at the most famous stone circle in the world but focusing on lesser-known circles—Arbor Low, Nine Ladies, and Kingston Russell, the artists use photography to challenge perceptions of heritage and highlight themes of identity and belonging in a new generation’s search for connection and belonging.
The exhibition is part of Photoworks’ 30th anniversary year programme.
Shout Out Loud provides a platform for young people to explore heritage sites and collections across England, helping them to uncover untold stories from our past. By amplifying their voices, Shout Out Loud puts their ideas and stories at the heart of English Heritage.
