About this Event
Where the Soul Finds Its Home — A Ceremony of Belonging ( public)
An exhibition and sensorial collaboration
Where the Soul Finds Its Home explores displacement, belonging, and the rituals through which we gather ourselves again. Across paintings layered with Farsi words, textures of memory, and colours drawn from personal and collective histories, artist Sara Shamsavari invites us to consider:
What does home feel like? And how do we carry it with us when we are far from where we began?
In partnership with Kiani Tea at the Royal Exchange, the exhibition extends beyond the visual. Each artwork is thoughtfully paired with a signature Persian-inspired drink — embracing the idea that belonging is not just seen, but tasted, shared, and embodied.
