FREE EVENTA bold and intimate exploration of contemporary South Asian identity
Be entirely enveloped in the vivid and sometimes surreal world of acclaimed filmmaker and video artist Naina Sen’s large-scale, conceptual video works.
Created over five years between India and Australia, this sensorial experience deconstructs and reconstructs the idea of the Indian feminine through stylised, futurist metaphorical reimaginings of Indian feminist mythology, contemporary cultural and ritualistic practices and personal storytelling.
Accompanied by a layered soundscape of field recordings, women’s songs, spoken word and a textural score, সুন্দরী / SHUNDORI is a multi-projection, multi-channel, multi-lingualvideo installation that turns the walls of the gallery into an immersive portal.
A long term collaborative work between the artist and over 500 womxn across India and the Indian diaspora in Australia, সুন্দরী / SHUNDORI is Naina Sen’s first major exhibition of video works.
The exhibition will be accompanied by a range of public programming and special events to be announced soon.
