Please join us for a panel discussion followed by reception on May 4, 2022, at 5:00 P.M. IST About the program: The Sindhu Project: Enigma of Roots traces shared family histories of both the artists' Gunjan Kumar and Mahwish Chishty as they link their familial history to the Indus region. Through parallel journeys involving familial roots and enigmas of inhabited places across time, Chishty and Kumar bring contemporary art-making into dialogue with excavated forms that contribute to imagining this ancient riverine landscape.
