Guided tour
Curator's Tour of Fragment and Form
18:00–19:00
Henry Moore Institute, Leeds
Join Head of Henry Moore Institute Laurence Sillars for a guided tour of our current exhibition, Fragment and Form: Emii Alrai, Mónica Mays, Dominique White.
Fragment and Form explores the dialogue between history and materiality in sculpture through the work of three contemporary artists: Emii Alrai, Mónica Mays and Dominique White.
Emii Alrai (b.1993) is a British-Iraqi artist whose work delves into themes of heritage, nostalgia, and the colonial legacy of looted artefacts.
Mónica Mays (b.1990) is a multidisciplinary artist whose work explores themes of cultural identity, memory and materiality, often through the lens of domestic objects and everyday rituals.
Dominique White (b.1993) is a British artist whose sculpture and installation work explores diaspora, Black identity and Afrofuturism.
