Alice Rekab
Hawa’s Sleeping Room

Hawa’s Sleeping Room presents new iterations and bodies of work by Alice Rekab. Taking its name from a photographic collage piece by Alice, the exhibition provides a space to encounter and engage with numerous works while incorporating architectural features of the STARLING space. In Hawa’s Sleeping room we collaborate, celebrate and make ourselves at home.

Hawa’s Sleeping Room also includes Mythlantics, a curated Performance Programme featuring artists, musicians and film-makers. This special presentation will take place on the weekend of 21st – 22nd June. Over this weekend STARLING becomes a place to explore a shared terrain of mythological recovery and remembrance; connecting us through language, sound and vision, to global post-colonial experiences of loss, change, repression, resistance and rejoicing in solidarity across histories.
