Record Keeping
22 Jan - 05 Mar 2005
Oriel Mostyn Gallery is proud to present Record Keeping, an international touring exhibition by the Toronto-based visual artist Sarindar Dhaliwal. This is the second leg of her first touring solo exhibition in the UK, and surveys the artist’s work over the last fifteen years.
Sarindar Dhaliwal was born in the Punjab region of India and educated in England. She draws on her complex cultural background to make sense of her personal here and now. The work reflects this through Dhaliwal’s use of abstract and material symbols (such as turbans, coal, ash, spices and stones). The work combines storytelling, painting and textile installations, resulting in a vibrant, lush and exotic exhibition that is both visually compelling and poetically evocative. She is now based in Toronto, Canada, where her work has been widely exhibited and is held in many public and private collections.
