Welcome Goodbye Adeus Obrigada: Journeys dislocations and imaginary nations

Welcome Goodbye Adeus Obrigada brings together artists that use journeys and imaginary places as the departure for their work. Their projects share references to tourism, migration and new geographies, encouraging speculations about the existence of a third space: a hybrid territory developing from transnational encounters and cross-border dialogues embedded in the fabric of day to day life.

Their work takes place in and around the Blue Elephant Theatre in Camberwell and Little Portugal, the name given to Stockwell's thriving Portuguese in the heart of south London. The programme brings together Portuguese artists living in Lisbon and the UK for the first time.

Welcome Goodbye Adeus Obrigada: Journeys dislocations and imaginary nations--Portuguese Festival of Performance and Visual Art; 3 May to 30 June
Blue Elephant Theatre, 59a Betwhin Rd Camberwell SE5 0XT.
