Amongst the creative bustle of Alserkal Avenue, Tallaa’s philosophical work sits quietly within Firetti Contemporary’s restrained gallery space. Tallaa’s ‘The Living Archive’ is underpinned by a concept outlined immediately as you step into the space: ‘The body remembers what language cannot hold. Memory lives in the way a person carries themselves, in the lines that deepen across a face, and in the traces that remain long after the circumstances that shaped them have passed.’

‘A World of Colour and Emotion’ at Leicester Museum and Art Gallery offers an exploration of human experience and heritage, with a particular focus on conflict and tragedy. The exhibition runs from the 15th February to the 29th June 2025 and showcases works spanning the past twenty-five years of the artist’s career.
