After our ceramic and glass exhibition titled ‘Moving through time” in March, which delved into Newcastle’s rich transport and industrial history. We will be exploring the people and places that make Newcastle in our upcoming exhibition; “I AM… (Newcastle)” at the Back to Back Gallery, Cooks Hill from 29th May – 14th June 2020. One of the catalysts for this exhibition was the reaction and enthusiasm shown by Novocastrians to “Moving through time”.

We are seeking images and if possible the stories behind them that scream Newcastle, dating from its’ beginnings to the present.

Here are a few points to think about:

  • What makes you think about Newcastle?
  • What is your local historical narrative?
  • What makes you think that “I’m home”?  (as in back in the Newcastle area)
  • When you think about Newcastle, what image comes to mind?

We will turn selected images into colour Ceramic and Glass Photographs for the upcoming exhibition and here is your opportunity to have your memories of this unique city immortalised as a permanent work of art.
