Starting with a tour of the commission and exhibition, the artists will guide you through their expedition in uncovering the elusive Great Hedge of India. They will also share insights into the extensive historical and archival research along with their ambitions in activating the work’s site-specific connection to Somerset House, and what it means to deconstruct the intricate narratives around Salt, Empire and Somerset House.

Following the tour, there will be a chance to speak with the artists and other participants over a selection of chai and pastries.
