Ahluwalia 'Jalebi'

Ahluwalia 'Jalebi'
Jalebi, the title of Ahluwalia's latest book and 3D VR exhibition.
 
Jalebi is a limited-edition photography tome, photographed by Laurence Ellis, that traces several strands of the designer’s work and what it means to be a young mixed heritage person living in modern Britain. 

Through photographs that move ‘back and forth between the imagined and real’, Ahluwalia explores the rich world of her roots, growing up regularly visiting Southall, Britain’s first Punjabi community. Each image weaves into the everyday lives of the people who pass through Ahluwalia’s eyes – representing the beauty of diversity and how immigration enriches lives and community. 

The book launch has been supported by Chameleon Visual who have created a 3D, VR exhibition, allowing Jalebi to be presented in a way that wouldn’t be achievable in the real world. 

Jalebi is a hard-back book, comprised of 100 pages and will be available to online at www.ahluwaliastudio.com 

All profits from Jalebi, along with the photographic print sales, will be donated to the Stephen Lawrence Charitable Trust and to Southall Black Sisters.
