Artist Narratives - Alia Syed in conversation with Gilane Tawadros

In a year where female artists are leading the charge, outstanding creative legacies are being rediscovered and celebrated. Historically marginalised artists are increasingly taking centre stage among major collections and international fairs. But at a time of political and social uncertainty, how do we ensure that a diversity of experience is represented and what does the future hold for next generation of artists? Set against the backdrop of life in multi-cultural Britain, Syed weaves intimate and heartfelt narratives, her elegant storytelling always alluding to broader universal themes of time and memory. An artist with a singular vision, Syed will share details of her process - from writing to directing and sometimes even starring in her films – and reflections on her time spent across the UK. We will ask Alia how her work has enabled her to connect with her wider community and sense of self. This event is part of our Artist Narratives series where we invite leading female voices from across the arts to reflect on their practice and share their visions for the future.
