Lubaina Himid, Magda Stawarska: Plaited Time/Deep Water

Explore how the work of path-breaking artist Lubaina Himid CBE RA inhabited the courtyards and galleries of Sharjah Art Foundation’s Al Mureijah Square. Developed over several years, Himid’s first exhibition in the region was conceived with Magda Stawarska, internationally renowned for her practice of ‘inner listening’—a collaborative process of listening to cities. ‘Plaited Time / Deep Water’ is in dialogue with Sharjah’s architecture, its soundscapes and the feelings evoked by its proximity to the sea. The exhibition is curated by Dr Omar Kholeif, Director of Collections and Senior Curator, Sharjah Art Foundation, UAE.
