Shezad Dawood's multi-media works are inspired by his varied cultural heritage, having a Pakistani mother, Indian father and an Irish stepmother. This is mirrored in his interest in the variety within different forms of art and the systems which society use to judge their value.
The exhibition is named after Dawood's first feature film. His other painting, installation, sculpture and digital art works are shown on the occasion. This catalogue includes nine critical essays on the artist, as well as plates of Shezad's works.
