The Idea: History is an inescapable process. As human beings, our bodies are inscribed with connotations that in many ways defy temporalities of existence. But our historically marked bodies dwell in a present with a desire to invent the future. Human beings’ desire to root themselves to a place and space where identity, communality and belonging matters to a great extent, and the urge to trace historical trajectories to know the ‘true’ past has obsessed humankind.
Within the discourse of visual art, artists have been unhesitating in interrogating history in the collective and individual memory, and often their interventions and engagements with historicity and remembrances have brought out narratives of resistance, voices of disquiet and foreboding aesthetics where the society is made not to forget. In this process, history is interpreted, recounted and mediated within their artistic personalities and particular intentions. In the hands of artists, temporality is extended, made to suspend or warped thereby letting history lose its linearity of progression. Allegory and metaphors in their aesthetic exercises add layers to the already subjective memories and selective histories framed via multiple interpretations.
Each of the participating artists in this exhibition has tried to capture a portrait of a nation whose historical trajectory has gone through strained moments that are heavy with colonial legacies, homeland claims, armed conflict, autocratic rule and polarized ethnic politics
