Jakkai Siributr: There’s no Place

This autumn, the Whitworth presents There’s no Place a significant new exhibition by acclaimed Thai artist Jakkai Siributr. Building on the Whitworth’s long history of radical global textile exhibitions, this show will offer visitors an intimate and breathtaking look at one of Southeast Asia’s leading contemporary artists on his first UK exhibition.

The Whitworth's new Project Space will house a host of works that span the major themes in Siributr’s practice. Moving between the Thailand's political and social histories, personal stories of grief and remembrance and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, this space will allow viewers to both view and interact with the artist’s intricate, monumental and dynamic work.
