The design on this stained-glass window has been chosen especially for its Polish theme; the poppies and the corn-flowers growing wildly in the corn fields. It symbolises a tiny corner of Poland in our home.
Fragments of the lives and feelings experienced by members of Leicester’s Jewish and Polish communities are brought to light in this online exhibition through photographs they share with each other in an attempt to reconnect with their interrelated history and culture. Recovering Connections interweaves their visual impressions, reflections as well as individual and communal heritage, demonstrating the deep relationship between two communities who live in the same city but only rarely encounter one another.
