'"But Where Are You Really From?" is the first of a series of exhibitions, titled "It's Still Hard Being British", exploring faith, migration and national identity. The series explore different facets of both terms - "British" and "Muslim". [...] The question of the title of this exhibition hints at the trouble young British-born Muslims have of being accepted as British, [...] To explore this theme, "But Where Are You Really From?" showcases the work of two young artists of Pakistani origin - one based in London, and the other in Melbourne.' by Hammad Nasar (Introduction, 'It's Still Hard Being British - 1: "But Where Are You Really From?"')
