Pi Artworks is thrilled to present A Soft Place to Land, a solo exhibition by artist Alya Hatta, from 7 - 30 November 2024.

A Soft Place to Land, will see Alya Hatta present a series of new large-scale paintings, miniature paintings and artefacts, and Family Tree, a nine-part sculptural installation. Alya Hatta’s practice reflects her nomadic childhood between Malaysia, the UK, the Indonesian archipelago, Saudi Arabia and Dubai. Her work begins by delving into her vast personal archive which includes everyday phone photos, evocative pictures and music videos found through casual Internet surfing, the British Museum’s online archives and the forever fervour of the family WhatsApp group chat. These materials come into focus through a diasporic lens, from Southeast Asia to Southeast London, signifying stable identification as eternally elusive.
