Talia Smith and Zainab Hikmet: And They All Say Your Name

Talia Smith and Zainab Hikmet unite in this exhibition, in which their time-based practices explore the feeling of longing for a moment or place. Both artists create personal works that reference the past, present and possible future, with ‘light’ as a guiding medium and emblem because of its potential to convey fleeting energy. The temporal quality of light is the cornerstone of this show which stages ‘oppositional structures to meet; the passing of time and memory, the spaces between, and the growing distance naturally created between people.’
