before in Harrow. Poulomi curated the first retrospective of the influential artist, Chila Burman, covering works created over 40 years, many that had not seen before. Working closely with Chila Burman, who was commissioned by The Tate Britain in 2020, new workshops were created and it could be said that it also helped to led to new commissions for the artist. Poulomi was commissioned by the Google Cultural Institute and Sound and Music in 2015 to curate an exhibition for International Women's Day. In 2017, she curated We are the Lions, the first comprehensive exhibition on the 1978-78 Grunwick strike.
