Renaturation: Fractured Identities, Future Selves by Debbie Yeboah This exhibition of work by Debbie Yeboah explores three interconnected concepts that engage with the reconstitution of the Ghanaian self in response to the ongoing effects of coloniality. The works offer a meditation on healing; using art as a tangible medium to address the colonial wound, while envisioning alternative futures. The three concepts are enmeshed in the artworks. Renaturation addresses the rebuilding of the fractured self, the threshold creates liminal, imaginative spaces of transformation; and braiding as re-membering symbolises the relational process of reconstructing identity in community. Each piece reflects the artist's exploration of these ideas, using bold, saturated colours and the recurring motif of braiding to signify the physical and emotional processes of putting the self back together. Through a dynamic body of work-including paintings, mixed media works, and a braided hair installation the artist makes visible the themes of healing, identity, and Ghanaian cultural resilience. This exhibition invites viewers into a reflective and creative dialogue about the ways in which art can be a critical and regenerative practice, engaging with both personal and communal identities in the pursuit of decolonial futures. The talk will be followed by a drinks reception. This display has been generously supported by Rachel Polonsky, Fellow of Murray Edwards College. Debbie Yeboah is a Ghanaian artist, researcher and educator. Debbie, a proud member of Murray Edwards College, has recently submitted her PhD thesis in Education. her research and art is closely entwined, with both informing the other. Her work critically engages with the enduring effects of coloniality on knowledge, identity art and culture.

It is a lovely and unique place. There are lots of famous attractions on the campus. However, if you want to visit them, you have to pay the entry fee to each college you want to access or pay to take the boat. I would strongly recommend taking the boat if possible because you can see the most historic and famous part of the school.

Having a boat trip in Cambridge can give a good experience of punting on the River Cam and also get lots of interesting stories about each college at the University of Cambridge. However, the cost of it is quite expensive.

Trinity College

There is a statue of Henry VIII at the entrance of Trinity College. There is an apple tree on the green lawn at the entrance of the college, which is the source of Newton&#39;s law of &quot;universal gravitation&quot;. When you enter the Great Court of the college, the magnificent architecture brings a sense of awe. In the lobby of the church are jade statues of famous graduates from Trinity College, including Newton, Bacon, Tennyson and others.

This photo was taken at night, so the clock is a little unclear. However, standing in front of it and watching it ticking forward, I still feel a little nervous. After all, no one can control time.
