Dhoomimal Gallery will be showcasing works by 26 emerging and established artists from six South Asian countries at SOAS Gallery, London, with the exhibition opening on 11th April. Titled “(Un)Layering the Future Past of South Asia: Young Artists’ Voices”, this exhibition will provide a global platform for the new generation of South Asian artists, highlighting shared histories and resilience across the region.

Curated by Salima Hashmi and Manmeet K. Walia, the exhibition brings together artists from India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Nepal, and Afghanistan to explore urgent themes such as ecological fragility, gender justice, displacement, and political unrest. The show will present new works and pieces that have never before been exhibited in London, including a remarkable range of paintings, sculptures, textiles, video works, and installations.
