Saudade is a Portuguese word evoking nostalgia for someone or something absent and beloved. The Saudade project celebrates the 10th anniversary of the Expatriate Archive Centre as an independent foundation and its mission to preserve the life stories of expats, who leave home, family, and everything they know behind. 10 artists from around the world have come together to gather inspiration from the EAC’s collection and create art pieces that will fit in an antique suitcase donated by one of the founders of the EAC.

We look forward to seeing you there! If your organisation is interested in hosting a future exhibition of the Saudade project, please contact the EAC at welcome@xpatarchive.com

Many thanks to Mondriaan Fonds and Twelve Twelve Gallery, without whom the Saudade Project would not be possible.
