Strangers With Angelic Faces exhibits the work of Turkish and British artists. Showing primarily video, new media and photography based practices the exhibition seeks to explore the boundaries and intersections of what it means to be a stranger.

As an unmanageable and uncontrollable source of both dread and eccentricity, the stranger constitutes a broad class in modern life today: alien migrants who penetrate borders, people who hail from different ethnic backgrounds, travellers who render maps meaningless.

Since the very beginning, art has always loved the Strangers menacing and mysterious existence... The Stranger is always something that art itself is inherently lacking in: an inanimate décor that excites the viewer and adds tension to the scene.
