Halima is one of the UK's most distinctive and dynamic sculptors. She was born in Kashmir and grew up in the north west of England and her sculpture reflects her dual international and local heritage.
She works in ceramic, bronze, stone, wood and her work is diverse in inspiration but instantly recognisable due to her bold, energetic designs, crisp carving and intuitive ability to integrate pattern, form material and scale.
This extensive show her largest to date, in the city where she first dreamt of being an artist, is the best opportunity yet to see the range of her work including the debut of her latest pieces.
