SOAS Gallery presents (Un)Layering the Future Past of South Asia: Young Artists’ Voices, an exhibition featuring works by 26 emerging and established artists from six South Asian countries, including newly commissioned pieces. With many of the artists exhibiting in London for the first time, the exhibition will provide a global platform for a new generation of South Asian artists spotlighting shared histories and resilience in the region. Supported by The Ravi Jain Memorial Foundation and curated by Salima Hashmi and Manmeet K. Walia, the show brings together artists from six countries—India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Nepal, and Afghanistan, whose works explore urgent themes such as ecological fragility, gender justice, displacement, and political unrest. Through painting, sculpture, textiles, photography, video work and installation, the artists invite viewers to reflect on the region’s shared experiences and challenges.Â
