Writings
For The World That Belongs to Us we have commissioned three essays by academics and curators to further explore normative histories and narratives of the South Asian diasporan artists.
Where Are All the British Asian Artists?
By Alice Correia
Alice discusses how to challenge the long-standing, structural, institutionalised racism and neglect by Britain’s art historians, curators, and galleries on the globally dispersed network of South Asian diaspora artists.
making oneself at home
By Alpesh Kantilal Patel
This essay weaves together Patel’s personal experiences, academic work, and engagement with the art world to discuss the idea of ‘making oneself at home’ and the fluidity of identity and belonging.
An additional essay by exhibition co-curator Aziz Sohail will be added to the microsite shortly after launch. Please come back soon.
