Seema Mattu: LOCAL SUPERSTAR

1 May-25 Jul 2026

Eastside Projects
Birmingham B9 4AR

Overview

‘Local Superstar’ is a multi-stranded constellation of sculpture, live action film, digital animation and congregative music. At the centre of gravity is a full size devotional party bus holding the formation of Saheli – a sonic collective of South Asian, queer, female and non-binary people. Join Seema on Saheli’s journey towards becoming a folk, punk band whose music and performances unpack misogyny, casteism, colourism and queer erasure in existing South Asian musical expression.
