About the Exhibition:
The Paglees is a fierce collective of South Asian women artists confronting colonialism, patriarchy, and erasure through radical creativity. With work spanning sculpture, moving image, performance, and installation, this exhibition questions what it means to be labeled “crazy” and reclaims that space as one of wisdom, power, and vision.
Don’t miss this final chance to experience the exhibition and connect with the voices behind it. Free. All are welcome. Come curious. Leave changed.
