An artist's new solo exhibition will tell a story of "migration, belonging and community".

Saroj Patel's 'Journey of the Blue Sun' will open in Oxford's Old Fire Station with a launch event from 1pm-4pm on September 28, and run until November 16.

The exhibition invites audiences into an "immersive, sensory experience" that looks at migration and integration in the UK.

Incorporating her signature textile artworks, it also features sound and video, which is new for Ms Patel.

Ms Patel said: "I have always been fascinated by my parents' stories about their initial move to the UK.

"Like many Indians who migrated to the UK, they faced numerous challenges and difficulties.

"However, being a second-generation immigrant has positively impacted my life in many ways.

"It has given me far more choices and opportunities than I would have had if I had been born in the villages in Gujarat."

The exhibition, comprising a series of new installations and sculptures, showcases stories of intercultural communities across the country.

It also includes new artworks co-created with a group of women from Sunrise Multicultural Project in Banbury.

Mark Devereux, the curator, added: "Journey of the Blue Sun shares an important personal story that is pertinent to so many people and communities living in the UK now.

"The new work Saroj has produced for this exhibition signals an exciting future for this ambitious and talented artist."
