Sandooq

Sandooq, translation: suitcase/trunk/chest, is a community project collecting and preserving memories of migration to Burnley by South Asian men aged 60+. Participants understood art and history through unpacking culture, collecting objects, resulting in a beautiful portrait exhibition and film. Sandooq is a heritage and place-making project which promises to preserve local cultural narratives and stories in a modern chest of memories which will live on for generations.
