Jala Wahid’s solo show Conflagration will be on view at Tramway in Glasgow from 23.06. – 10.09.2023. The artist presents a new body of work exploring the relationship between Britain and Kurdistan, through the lens of oil. The installation approaches oil as the symbolic material through which nationalism, statelessness, colonialism and Kurdish identity are explored.
Jala Wahid makes work that touches on urgent issues in relation to identity, nationhood, diasporic living and intergenerational legacies. She considers how politics and poetic expression interweave. Wahid looks to embody this intertwining in her work by exploring its urgency, defiance, euphoria and violence to suggest ways of being that challenge fixed definitions of identity.
Conflagration is Wahid’s first institutional solo exhibition and her first in Scotland. It is a co-commission with Baltic, Gateshead and has previously been exhibited there.
