About this event

  • 2 hours

On May 11, 4:30-6:30 PM, please join Twelve Gates Arts for an afternoon dedicated to the exhibition Power / Play! First, curator Ambika Trasi will give an overview of the works in the show and discuss the exhibition’s themes, which will be followed by a conversation with artists Sophia Balagamwala and Noormah Jamal. With food and refreshments, we invite you to engage with our artists and exhibition live and in-person!

As part of this program, Twelve Gates is excited to screen Jagdeep Raina’s short animation, Fallout. Set in Southall—a working class immigrant enclave in the outskirts of London—Fallout explores the story of a woman's resilience as she heals from the trauma of abuse to nurture the unconditional bonds of love with her daughter.
