PhotoILKLEY: Oluwakemi Oluwunmi
6th Aug 2026 - 6th Sep 2026 11:00 am - 4:00 pm
Dedicated exclusively to photographic art, the festival brings together a vibrant range of thought-provoking photographic exhibitions that invites us to look closer at the world around us, at each other, and at the stories we live every day.
Home Is Where You Are, by Oluwakemi Oluwunmi
The work considers movement from one place to another, across visible and invisible borders, and asks what it means to feel at home. Here, home is not simply a geographical location or a fixed physical place. It becomes a state of connection, memory and care — a feeling shaped by people, presence and shared experience.
Follow us on FacebookThrough this project, Oluwunmi explores the quiet moments when belonging is recognised: when the mind finds rest, joy, peace and love, even briefly. Each person carries their own story, hopes, struggles and small victories. Together, these experiences form a tender reflection on how we find place and space in the world, and how we may come to say: home is where you are.
Included in photoILKLEY 2026 as part of this year’s theme, HUMAN : NATURE, Oluwakemi Oluwunmi’s ongoing project Home Is Where You Are reflects on human journeys, belonging and the emotional landscapes we carry within us.
