A sound and light installation amplifying the lives and histories of Bangladeshi women living in Tower Hamlets.
Produced by Emergency Exit Arts with Creative Director Ruhul Abdin in partnership with Oitij-jo, Paraa and the Migration Museum, Stitching Light gathers real life experiences of Bangladeshi women who’ve migrated to England and weaves their stories together into an immersive sound and light installation. The installation is created using traditional Bangladeshi folk style painting and embroidered using light thread to tell their stories which are rarely gathered, told or heard.
Stitching Light will be on display at Canary Wharf Winter Lights from 21 January 2025 – 1 February 2025.
