Echoes in the Gallery: My Textiles Now Exhibiting at Leeds City Museum

"The artifacts were silent until we gave them a voice. Now, the story continues in thread."

Following the powerful energy of the Jah Fire Burning performance at Seven Arts—where we used museum objects to tell the living history of the Leeds Rastafari community—I am moved to share the next chapter of this journey. My latest textile works are now officially exhibiting at Leeds City Museum in the Leeds Gallery.

This exhibition is more than a display; it is a follow-up to the rhythms we shared on stage. It is a translation of ancestral wisdom into permanent fiber art. From the "Frontline" of Chapeltown to the hallowed halls of the city’s archives, I am exploring how our history can be both felt in a bassline and touched in a stitch.
