The exhibition titled Faith in the city we inhabit coincides with the opening of a new Zawiya by the School of Sufi Teaching (London) and is supported by Amal (a Saïd Foundation programme).
Painters, photographers, graphic designers, architects, calligraphers, poets, storytellers and sound artists have openly interpreted the theme of faith, spirituality or a sense of place in the city that they currently inhabit. Artworks have been received from across the UK and as far as India and Malaysia during the Covid-19 global pandemic.
You can visit pages of the individual artists by clicking on the names below or on the captions accompanying the images in the gallery.
Faith in the City We Inhabit has been curated by Saif Osmani. Design and Execution by Rashmi Munikempanna.
