In recent years, discussions that had once used the language of 'the homeless' have shifted to refer, instead, to experiences of homelessness and to those experiencing homelessness. Accompanying this shift, there has also been an increased concern for understanding forms of homeless experience beyond that which might be reduced to a certain, culturally familiar, representation.

Yet how might a more diverse understanding of homelessness experiences be represented? What are the political ramifications and possibilities for these shifts: how might homelessness be reimag(in)ed? The second session of the Visual Ethics Network will be introduced and led by Dr Thomas Morgan Evans (Art Academy London) as a lead-up to the CAA conference panel he is organising in February, entitled "Reimag(in)ing Homelessness".

The event will start with a brief presentation, and then group discussions will take place by taking as starting point the following reading:
