By the end of the 21st century, the Silver City, once known as Nottingham, has learned that change is the only constant. Whether it’s inhabitants were born there or arrived as refugees, all carry indelible memories of bewilderment and escape, of love, regret and transformation. Spinning through six decades of crisis and collapse, their stories ask: how do ordinary people fit into the great sweep of history?
This book accompanied the exhibition ‘Our Silver City, 2094’, presented at Nottingham Contemporary . Based on a methodology by Prem Krishnamurthy, the project was developed by the artists Céline Condorelli, Femke Herregraven and Grace Ndiritu.
