the kiss and other warriors is the first UK solo exhibition of internationally acclaimed artist Laylah Ali.

Combining paintings and new drawings, Ali continues her exploration of the social dynamics of violence and cultural difference. Playful while at the same time deeply disturbing, the cartoon-like imagery with ambiguous narratives offers uncanny resonances to present-day conflicts.

Accompanying the exhibit is a newly commissioned artist's book titled ‘Notes with Little Illustration’.
