Boundless: Transitions is an immersive multi-media exhibition featuring a range of live and streamed satellite events including panel discussions, guided tours, presentations to schools, and an interactive local arts trail.
The project explores intertwined environmental and sociological themes. How we can address the energy crisis? How can we reenvisage and reshape our urban landscapes? How do we engage with migration and diaspora communities on a planetary and a local Deptford level?
Fion Gunn, co-lead artist describes the exhibition as “a sensory journey of exploration, where narratives of the natural world and human world coincide and collide.”

The artists will co-create with visitors and partners, presenting stories of displacement and trade. These include tales of migration, legacies of exchanges of ideas and beliefs across borders, and multi-perspective histories of Empire.
A-Maze Artists Collective want to make a difference and demonstrate to the communities engaging with the project that the environment is not simply something external to us, but something of which we are all part.
Maureen Kendal, co-lead of the Collective said that “from the outset we have included schools, universities, and community groups in the planning of the project. They will be active participants, mentored by our team so that all visitors to our exhibition can gain skills, insights, and have a transformative experience.”
The artists – Chen Mei-Tsen, Fion Gunn, Alan Hudson, Ardern Hulme-Beaman, Shoran Jiang, Maureen Kendal, Audrey Mullins, Nazia Parvez and Freddie Sanders – will be presenting interactive installations (both 2D and 3D) which feature embedded electronics, AI-generated elements, and sensory soundscapes. The exhibition will include AR pop-ups accessible via free downloadable apps and a local arts trail which uses What3words geocode.
BOUNDLESS: TRANSITIONS is supported using public funding by the National Lottery through Arts Council England and sponsorship from Green Wings Project.
