About the Exhibition
Reflection, an exhibition by celebrated British-Bangladeshi artist Rana Begum, opens on January 24, 2026. Curated by Daniel S. Palmer, Chief Curator of the SCAD Museum of Art in Savannah, the presentation at The Gallery builds on Begum’s acclaimed US museum debut and marks her first presentation in South Florida.
Premiering at SCAD and traveling to Vero Beach, Florida, the exhibition will be displayed in two distinct cultural settings, each offering a unique perspective on Begum’s practice. Reimagined within The Gallery at Windsor’s distinctive architectural space and tropical outdoors, the exhibition spans more than a decade of Begum’s practice, tracing her expansion of abstraction and Minimalism through a contemporary global lens. Known for her innovative use of industrial materials—including automobile light reflectors, safety tape, glass and metal panels, and chain link fencing—Begum transforms the everyday into evocative compositions that exist in dialogue with their environment.
Reflection invites visitors to experience Begum’s practice as a journey of discovery, where vibrant compositions evolve with each change in light or movement, expanding from aesthetic encounters into profound moments of contemplation. Begum’s work has been exhibited internationally in solo and group exhibitions, earning acclaim for its immersive, transformative qualities
About the Artist
Rana Begum (b. 1977, Sylhet, Bangladesh; lives and works in London) focuses on the interplay between light and color, blurring the boundaries between sculpture, painting, and architecture. Her use of repetitive geometric patterns — found within both Islamic art and the industrial cityscape — is inspired by childhood memories of the rhythmic, daily recitals of the Qur’an. Influenced by the geometric abstraction of Minimalism and Constructivism and the work of artists such as Agnes Martin, Donald Judd, Jesús Rafael Soto, and Tess Jaray, Begum’s work ranges from drawings, paintings, and wall-based sculptures to large-scale public art projects.

Overview
Contemporary British Bangladeshi artist Rana Begum uses light, space, and color to create transformative artworks that are completed by the viewer’s experience of them. In Reflection, the artist’s first museum survey in the U.S., Begum demonstrates the breadth of her practice, expanding on legacies of abstraction, Minimalism, and Op art through a contemporary global lens. Begum’s work harnesses geometry and light effects to dynamic ends, embracing modern industrial materials such as automobile light reflectors, safety tape, metal or glass panels, and chain link fence segments. By recontextualizing these elements in imaginative ways, the artist produces formally compelling installations that not only dazzle the eye but also highlight the complexities of human perception and the nuanced way we each view the world around us. The intricate spatial and visual act of engaging with Begum’s work initiates transformation, evolving from the aesthetic realm to the transcendent — an encounter with art that allows us to reach toward the profound. Documenting this significant exhibition, while pairing insightful observations on the artist’s trajectory by SCAD Museum of Art chief curator Daniel S. Palmer and an energizing dialogue between the artist and culture writer Osman Can Yerebakan, the catalogue delves into the methods, meanings, and meditations at the core of Begum’s creative ethos.
Rana Begum: Reflection is organized by the SCAD Museum of Art in partnership with The Gallery at Windsor. The catalogue is coproduced by Begum Studio, SCAD University Press, The Gallery at Windsor, The Third Line, Galerie Christian Lethert, Kate McGarry, and Jhaveri Contemporary.
