Our families are a haven for many—a place of safety, comfort, and love. The hearth and home of family life exist without condition, and if endangered or lost altogether, we feel it deeply.

Through the upheavals and destabilizing effects of the pandemic, Family has taken on greater importance, revealing how the idea of Family extends beyond the genetic to embrace what is essential and most beautiful about our love for one another.

In this exhibition, the Thames Art Gallery invited the community to respond to your experience of Family through photography. Photography is an excellent medium for storytelling, and the displayed photographs expresses the experience of Family in the photographer’s life.
