Aliyah Hussain is at an exciting point in her career. Recent successes include a solo exhibition at Lowry; being featured alongside works by Salvador Dali, Leonora Carrington and Jean Arp in The Hepworth’s, 100 Years of Surrealist Landscapes; and an Artist Fellowship at the UCLan ceramics department. A ceramicist who also works across sound, collage and digital, Hussain’s work constructs narratives out of abstract and ornate sculptural forms.

As an artist and curator of Jamaican heritage who lives on the Yorkshire East coast, it was an absolute delight and a buzz to see the Diasporas Now programme detonating here in Hull at Humber Street Gallery. Born out of lockdown, Diasporas Now was founded in 2021 by Rieko Whitfield (Japan/USA), Paola Estrella (Mexico) and Lulu Wang (China) whilst they were all at the Royal College of Art.

Halmang at esea contemporary is Jane Jin Kaisen’s debut UK solo exhibition, curated by Dot Zhihan Jia. It centres around a new moving-image work which follows a group of eight women in their seventies and eighties who make a living as haenyeo – a community of female sea divers – on the volcanic island of Jeju, located fifty miles off the Korean peninsula. Alongside ‘Halmang’ (2023), esea presents two earlier films by Kaisen, ‘Of The Sea’ (2013) and ‘The Woman, The Orphan, and The Tiger’ (2010).
