Hayv Kahraman: She has no name

51 Conduit Street London, W1S 2YT, United Kingdom Friday, April 12, 2024–Saturday, May 25, 2024 Opening Reception: Thursday, April 11, 2024, 6 p.m.–8 p.m.


Pilar Corrias is delighted to present She has no name, a solo exhibition of paintings and works on paper by Hayv Kahraman at its Conduit Street gallery. Reflecting on her early experiences as an Iraqi refugee in Sweden, Kahraman’s new body of work examines the ways in which colonial practices in the field of botany continue to perpetuate hierarchical structures and gendered metaphors within the natural world and, by extension, sociopolitical contexts.
