Saif Osmani - Bulbul's song
A London - Sylhet dialogue
Did Tony Blair help kill the holy Gajar fish at Shah Jalal's shrine? Is the 'neo-Islam' of England the true face of Islam? Can we train our minds to create a hybrid language for the whole of humanity?
Mystical creatures emerge from underground, man-made wars force masses to coexist, new narratives shift physical landscapes, national psyches clash?
This latest set of paintings responds to the site specific and investigates ongoing cross-cultural dialogue between Sylhet (north-east Bangladesh) and London with references to the London Sufi movement and Baul traditions.
Saif Osmani (St. Martin's/ Chelsea) is a spatial designer and visual artist practicing in London.

The White Eastend artworld needs to wake up to their Sylheti brothers. We dont just work in restaurants and sell drugs. But they are too patronizing and racist. Go on Sylheti boy!
