Summary:
Bharti Kher's first solo exhibition held in a public art institution in London is composed of a selection of works from the recent past, with an emphasis on the artist's sculptural works. Known for her extensive use of everyday, found objects and imaginatively transforming their identity, Kher empowers her often otherworldly creations to present themselves unabashedly as if they were a natural part of our culture and environment.
