Leslie Kerby focuses on social narratives exploring the constructs of identity, communal spaces and social media. Her Containment Series collages explore the use of shipping containers for permanent or temporary housing, and as vessels for risky passages to freedom. The containers, typically sealed and used for the safe keeping of their cargo, have become a burgeoning communal space. The titles are derived from the international numbering system used to identify the type of container and country of origin.
