REFLECTIONS – SANGAT AND THE SELF

REFLECTIONS - SANGAT AND THE SELF is a collaborative exhibition of newly commissioned and recent works by Manchester-born painter Jasmir Creed and Birmingham based artist Roo Dhissou working at the intersection of social justice and visual practice. 

 The exhibition will explore the themes of the INDIVIDUAL KINSHIP AND HEALING while addressing the wider societal issues such as mental well-being and social fragmentation. 

While Jasmir's work zooms in on PERSONAL identity and Roo emphasises the role of COLLECTIVE encounter within without SHAPE without FORM provides a holistic framework of 'BEYOND' fusing the two sensitivities and propositions into an open-ended experience of unity. 

By interweaving moments of connection and self-discovery throughout the space all the artworks will examine how TRUE and LASTING HEALING comes from within highlighting clarity of mind and Sangat (gathering and fellowship) as the key factors in combating isolation and division. 

This is an invitation to SLOW DOWN EXPLORE and REFLECT upon on how healing can be processed and experienced.
