Wembley Park Art Trail
Visions of Home
Working with leading artists and community contributors, Wembley Park's boulevards and areas are a vast free public gallery of art and culture. Enhancing the area’s global reputation for sport, music and live entertainment, our public art highlights Wembley Park as a diverse, distinctive and vibrant neighbourhood.
Our free art trail consists of 18 pieces across a number of mediums, including paints, digital mixed media and upcycled materials. Learn more about each artwork and its artist below.
Visions of Home
Launching in Summer 2022, 'Visions of Home', curated by Ukrainian-born artist and photographer Ira Lupu, consists of six major public realm artworks, that form part of our free Wembley Park Art Trail. On display until October 2022, 'Visions of Home' incorporates a variety of photographic artworks, murals, and digital artworks – all conveying powerful messages to raise awareness of just how the sense of home has been forever altered, from the perspective of Ukrainian artists. ‘Visions of Home’ gently celebrates this peaceful place of belonging as an inseparable concept that lives forever in the Ukrainian consciousness, using the urban landscape of Wembley Park, with careful consideration, as the canvas for art allows the viewer to absorb its power and beauty at every turn, in a subtle yet impactful way.
Tvoya Opora
For ‘Visions of Home', Wembley Park is partnering with the charity fund Tvoya Opora, (meaning 'Your Support') which is currently fundraising to expand and improve the refugee shelter in Lviv, “Vse Bude Dobre” - “Everything Will Be Fine", – the most populated refugee camp in the country at present. Tvoya Opora is the shelter where Elena Subach & Helen Zhgir photographed much of the people featured in the exhibition.
There’s more outdoor art to savour as Wembley Park launches a brand spanking new art trail, featuring 15 installations by artists from around the world.
Spotlight on... In Ukraine: As My Heart Yearns
Curate by Ira Lupu, 'In Ukraine: As My Heart Yearns' is a continuation of an international photography series started in March 2022 showcasing Ukraine’s past and present and includes pastoral archival imagery and recent refugee portraiture by Yana Kononova, Ira Lupu, Paraska Plytka-Horyts it and Elena Subach and Helen Zhgir.
