DIVA, opening later this month at the V&A Museum, will celebrate the power and creativity of iconic and influential female performers in music. The exhibition explores and redefines the role of the 'diva' and how this has been subverted or embraced over time across opera, stage, popular music, and film.

Featuring the works of renowned Artist David Corio and other talented contributors, the exhibition captures the raw emotion, power, and beauty of these extraordinary musicians. With this immersive showcase the visitor is invited to explore the cultural impact of female musicians throughout history, from trailblazers to icons and pay tribute to the women who have shaped the music landscape.
