Sahar Khoury’s largest solo exhibition to date expands on her 2023 solo exhibition, Sahar Khoury: Umm, at the Wexner Center for the Arts in Ohio. The Oakland-based sculptor is inspired by familial and global histories, food, music and mourning. The exhibition features a reconfigured clock tower sculpture that alludes to market structures in the Eastern Mediterranean Levant region, and new works in ceramic and brass that speak to familial and cultural ties across time.

Curated by Susie Kantor, associate curator and exhibition department head
