She has subsequently exhibited throughout the UK and internationally, including the Barbican Centre and South Bank Centre in London; Barnaby Festival, Macclesfield; Peabody Essex Museum, USA; and the Sharjah Museum, UAE. In addition to her digital work, for which she has collaborated for many years with Cris Thompson, Zarah continues to make paintings and sculpture as an integral part of her practice.<\/p>\n<p>Geometric Light will include Invisible Threads \u2013 a wall-based installation of 54 light boxes filled with programmable LEDs; Beauty of Abstraction \u2013 a projected animation from 2005; Sharjah Spectrum \u2013 a projected animation which has infinite combinations of colour; Breath \u2013 a projection of a changing dodecagon evoking the inhaling and exhaling associated with breathing; and a series of new Breath paintings.<\/p>\n<p>Gallery hours: Tuesday to Saturday, 10am &#8211; 4pm<\/p>\n<a itemprop=\"url\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theturnpikegallery.org.uk\/Events\/Exhibitions.aspx\" target=\"_blank\"  class=\"qodef-btn qodef-btn-medium qodef-btn-solid qodef-with-svg-arrow\"  >\n    <span class=\"qodef-btn-text\">\n        <span class=\"qodef-btn-text-inner\">More Info<\/span>\n                    <svg class=\"qodef-svg-icon\" x=\"0px\" y=\"0px\" viewBox=\"0 0 5 8.7\" enable-background=\"new 0 0 5 8.7\" xml:space=\"preserve\" >\n                <path d=\"M0.3,7.6l3.2-3.3L0.3,1.1C0,0.8,0,0.6,0.3,0.3c0.3-0.3,0.5-0.3,0.8,0L4.7,4c0.1,0.1,0.2,0.2,0.2,0.4c0,0.2-0.1,0.3-0.2,0.4 \n                        L1.1,8.4c-0.3,0.3-0.5,0.3-0.8,0C0,8.2,0,7.9,0.3,7.6z\"\/>\n            <\/svg>\n            <\/span>\n    <i class=\"qodef-icon-font-awesome  \" ><\/i><\/a>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Digital and light-based artworks 2005-2022 \u201cThere is a very interesting relationship between generative, computer-programmed art and Islamic art, starting with the simple fact that in both, patterns and numbers underlie everything.\u201d &#8211; Zarah Hussain The Turnpike Gallery is delighted to present a stunning exhibition by award-winning artist Zarah Hussain.
