Jakkai Siributr: There's no Place Art Review

22 April 2025
"Siributr's textile works emerge from times of conflict and violence, setting horror and yearning in fabric"
 
Out now in Art Review is an in-depth feature on Jakkai Siributr's recent exhibition 'There's no Place' at The Whitworth Art Gallery, Manchester. Running from November - March, the first UK institutional exhibition for Siributr built on the Whitworth's long history of radical global textile exhibitions, offering an intimate look at a series of immersive works that span the major themes in Siributr's practice, moving between Southeast Asia's political and social histories, personal stories of grief and remembrance and the impact of the pandemic.
