Friday has arrived… In the new issue of Elephant, we meet six ascendent young artists to discuss how living in the UK informs their work. Included is Furmaan Ahmed, a multi-disciplinary artist, choreographer, set designer and image-maker from Glasgow, whose practice “foregrounds imaginative world-building within trans and non-white communities”—with visually breathtaking results. “Art is a healing process,” Ahmed explains in the issue. “It’s for me to talk to others who have the same kind of secret language that any kind of diaspora person has. We should be focusing on commonality.” Purchase issue 46 here to read on.
