(Un)Layering the future past of South Asia: Young artists’ voices

10 Apr-21 Jun 2025

Brunei Gallery, SOAS
London WC1H0XG

Overview

This exhibition addresses tradition, co-existence and exploration within South Asia that emphasises the interconnectedness in the region, and the collective memory of being a nation. 

The South Asian region, through similar origin, has connecting histories which create a common thread through the conversations. We envision this fragment of commonalities to be captured through the exhibition, that is seen in the contemporary young voices of South Asian artists who are responding to social issues at the moment.

Featured artists include:

Ashfika Rahman (Bangladesh)
Ayesha Sultana (Bangladesh)
Ghulam Mohammad (Pakistan)
Hadi Rahnaward (Afghanistan)
Hema Shironi (Sri Lanka)
Moonis Shah (India)
Palash Bhattacharjee (Bangladesh)
Pradeep Thalawatta (Sri Lanka)
Varunika Saraf (India)
