We are excited to announce the upcoming exhibition in The Suttie Arts Space by Nepali artist and illustrator, Srija Shrestha. The new work for the exhibition is set to a brief developed by Primary 6 pupils at Cornhill Primary School and co-curated by Naoko Mabon.

To explore a shape of “home” that cares for and can be shared by different people living, working, visiting and studying in the the Cornhill locality and Aberdeen Royal Infirmary campus, Srija used Devanagari script of Nepali language, her mother tongue, as raw material to create a series of concrete poetry.
