Nep Sidhu: Divine of Form, Formed in the Divine (Medicine for a Nightmare)

Curated by cheyanne turions

Opening reception: Friday 27 September, 6-10pm, all welcome

Divine of Form, Formed in the Divine (Medicine for a Nightmare) examines how memories persist in the present, especially when related to personal and collective practices of resistance, resilience, and ritual. This mid-career survey is anchored by recent works that reflect upon Sikh histories amongst other collectively formed and formative histories considered through collaborations with Maikoiyo Alley-Barnes and Nicholas Galanin. Across different bodies of work produced over the last decade, Nep Sidhu explores how memorialization practices can transfigure grief and loss, and how they can speak to the power and harmony of the divine.
