Viewing Chila Kumari Singh Burman Compton Verney

Equally spectacular and surreal is this dazzling Chila Kumari Singh Burman exhibition, unveiled at Compton Verney today. As the darkness creeps in ever earlier, Burman’s brilliant exhibition brings illumination to the countryside, lighting up the historic facades of Compton Verney with the artist’s trademark neon works that she has made since lighting up the Tate Britain with her widely acclaimed installation in 2020.

Beyond the kaleidoscopic intervention that takes over the front of the house, the exhibition continues inside with array of works from new and recent sculptures, many of which have not been shown before, to earlier prints, collages and films. It’s Burman’s largest exhibition in recent years, and encompasses a 40-year period in which the artist has explored her Hindu-Punjabi cultural identity, feminism, and working class Liverpudlian upbringing, amongst other themes.
