No.9 Cork Street’s programme this month brings South Asian and diasporic perspectives into focus through two exhibitions staged in close dialogue. Nature Morte is a two-person presentation by Martand Khosla and Saad Qureshi, whose sculptural and drawn works explore the tension between architecture’s promise of permanence and its inevitable failure. Through voids, ash, charcoal and sand, both artists reflect on memory, erasure and what remains after the disintegration of the built world.

Alongside it, Bolanle Contemporary presents Osman Yousefzada’s A Home That Will Not Behave, an exhibition that approaches the domestic interior as a charged, unstable site shaped by intimacy and bodily presence. Working across pigment, fibre, collage, screen printing, embroidery and hand painting, Yousefzada builds layered environments in which storytelling plays a central role, opening up questions around marginalisation and resistance, and the power of domestic spaces as sites of refuge, refusal and renewal. Together, the two exhibitions offer a compelling snapshot of contemporary South Asian and diasporic practice.
