Chila Welcomes You


  • IWM North Trafford Wharf Road Manchester (map)

In an immersive and playful assemblage of images, patterns, voices and sound, Burman threads memories of her childhood through a wider exploration of migration and the Indian independence movement.  

The exhibition features light-based neons installed on IWM North’s façade, Burman’s first ever work in tapestry, explorations of photography, a neon corner shop sculpture and ready-made treasures taken from her studio – plus much more.  

"This commission brings together so many elements of my artistic practice…It’s an opportunity for me to bring to life important stories of resistance and defiance in my own personal way."  Chila Burman
