 Zoom

In 2008, Cardiff-based, Polish-born artist, Michal Iwanowski, came across graffiti near his home that read ‘Go Home, Polish’. Ten years later, he undertook a gruelling 1900km journey on foot between Wales and Poland with the aim of understanding the notion of ‘home’ amidst the backdrop of Brexit. The journey took 105 days to complete throughout which he posted a diary of his experiences and encounters on Instagram.
