Rana Begum

Rana Begum’s debut solo exhibition at Lehmann Maupin unveils a captivating exploration of light and form, building on two decades of her distinctive practice. The British-Bangladeshi artist masterfully manipulates perception through sculptural works that react dynamically to their surroundings – colour shifts with the angle of observation and changes with the ambient light. Begum treats light not just as illumination but as an active participant in her art, a central subject and medium transforming her pieces into responsive environments. Her approach bridges abstraction and phenomenology, creating immersive experiences where the artwork itself becomes integral to the space it occupies. This exhibition offers a rare opportunity to witness Begum’s unique vision – a powerful dialogue between sculpture, architecture, and the very essence of how we see. Free admission makes this compelling showcase accessible to all art enthusiasts.
