About this Event

Join Jana Manuelpillai, Director and founder of The Noble Sage, for an intimate guided tour of The Journey So Far… — a landmark exhibition celebrating twenty years of one of London's most distinctive collections of South Asian modern and contemporary art.


In this personal tour, Jana draws on two decades of collecting, travelling, and building relationships with artists across India, Sri Lanka, and Pakistan to bring the works vividly to life. Expect frank, passionate and illuminating conversation about the artists, their practices, and the stories behind individual pieces — as well as reflections on what it has meant to dedicate twenty years to championing this art in London.


Whether you are a seasoned collector, new to South Asian art, or simply curious, this is a rare opportunity to experience the collection through the eyes of the person who built it.


Duration: Approximately 60 minutes Meeting point: Inside the gallery at 15 Bateman Street, Soho

Places are limited. Booking via Eventbrite is essential.
