Only 3 weeks left to experience our first exhibition of the year, Circles and Storytellers by Bouchra Khalili before it closes on 14 June!

The first public UK solo exhibition by French-Moroccan multidisciplinary artist and educator, Bouchra Khalili at Mosaic Rooms.

In her practice, Khalili suggests new civic imaginations and alternative ways of belonging. The works on display mark the conclusion of Khalili’s decade-long exploration into the overlooked history of the Mouvement des Travailleurs Arabes (MTA) and its theatre groups, Al Assifa and Al Halaka, led by Maghrebi undocumented workers. Their advocacy for social justice and the freedom of artistic expression in the 1970s, foregrounds the power of storytelling and performance in forming communities.
