Nour Hage: Kheit خیط is on display in the historic Drawing Room at Leighton House, is an exhibition and event series in collaboration with The Arab British Centre. Meaning ‘thread’ in Arabic, Kheit presents three artworks created in response to the tiles in the Arab Hall and staircase hall. An award-wining textile artist, Nour has also researched the museum’s collection of antique textiles, featuring Syrian clothing, Ottoman hangings and runners, and Iranian carpets.

Also on display is 'Our Garden', co-produced with eight local residents, invited to participate in a series of workshops to create embroidered symbols which had a personal significance for them. Stitched together, the resulting piece is presented as a talismanic object, imbued with each participant’s intentions.
