'The exhibition brings together the work of eleven artists of Indian and Pakistani background who work in the international diaspora. Drawing on the notion of a myth, a perpetuating narrative featuring heroic or supernatural characters and events, or the idea of a fable, an aphoristic or instructive story, these artists use the narrative form to comment on the world.' - by Haema Sivanesan ('Urban Myths and Modern Fables' p.17) 
Artists' biography is provided in this catalogue.
