About this event

For the past few months, shado has been working with artists in Manchester, Cardiff and Birmingham alongside lead curator Leyla Reynolds to create new work around the theme reimagination.

What does reimagination mean? It could be climate justice, abolition, racial justice, LGBTQI+ rights – or maybe it’s a combination of all of these concepts, and a representation of breaking down the structures that have been constructed to marginalise the most vulnerable in society.

And now, shado is thrilled to present the Birmingham exhibition REIMAGINATION in collaboration with local artists:

In our opening night, we’ll be meeting the artists, showcasing their work for the first time, and joined by special guests:

  • Izatna
  • Cherie Kwok
  • Tolemia Gregory
  • Imogen Richards
  • Vidya Patel
  • Emily Doyle
  • Caitlin Kiely
  • Rumbi Savanhu
  • Jane Thakoordin
  • Fae Kilburn
  • Adam Wynn
