Huma Bhabha in We Sinful Women
8 September—7 December 2025
Group exhibition at SOAS Gallery, London, UK
We Sinful Women: Women in Art and Activism, an exhibition featuring rarely seen works from the private collection of Taimur Hassan. We Sinful Women: The Library Project, curated by Salima Hashmi and Manmeet K Walia, brings together leading women artists from South Asia and the Middle East, positioning their work within a framework of resistance, resilience and shared histories. The exhibition will be accompanied by a panel discussion on Thursday, 16th October, and regular tours led by the curators.
This is the second edition of The Library Project, which began at the Chelsea College of Arts Library. For this iteration, SOAS Library opens its space beyond its members, inviting the wider public to engage with the exhibition in an environment where silence, scholarship and dissent intersect. The exhibition provides the library with an active site of dialogue, reflection and learning.
