KHEIT
Kheit is an exhibition of three new artworks commissioned by the Arab British Center and Leighton House Museum. Created in response to the museum, the pieces take inspiration from Lord Leighton’s collection, in particular the tiles in the Arab Hall and Staircase Hall, and recently acquired antique textiles on display throughout the house. In these pieces, I drew on motifs within the interiors, weaving new meanings from the collection - exploring textile traditions to create highly personal talismanic objects.
