Colors of the Diaspora: Alia Farid

[The Markaz Review, 22 January 2024]

In Alia Farid’s artworks, communities, local practices and traditions are reconsidered, giving the rhythms of everyday life political significance and potency. It is the first chapter of an ongoing research project, initially conceived in 2013, which maps Arab and South Asian migration to Latin America and the Caribbean. Her show Elsewhere is on view at the Chisenhale Gallery in London until February 4, 2024.
