A feast of colour and texture, this major monograph celebrates one of Britain's most exciting contemporary artists and her extraordinary body of work from across four decades.
Chila Burman is known for her radical feminist practice, her joyful neon light installations and her use of kaleidoscopic colours. Exploring the experiences and aesthetics of Asian femininity and female empowerment, and drawing on popular culture, her work has consistently strived to challenge stereotypes and to champion equality.
Featuring paintings, prints, neons, installation and video works, and a range of perspectives, the book explores the ideas central to Burman’s practice, as well as her unique style.
