GROUP EXHIBITION

Featuring photography, audiovisual works, and archival materials, Undefined Territory addresses constructions of place, identity, time, and knowledge within contemporary Bangladesh. The works in this exhibition unravel notions of ‘territory’, whether taken to mean the politics of a defined geography, structures of language as propagated by coloniality, or passage of time as palpable to a degree of rigidity and stagnation. Falling outside traditional frameworks of understanding, these ‘territories’ negotiate the limits of the personal as contextualized and rooted within the political. Undefined Territory foregrounds images, still and moving, and synthetic materials to engage with these constructs, locating the impersonal, the identifiable, the absurd and the tangible in dialectic play. This exhibition includes works by Shumon Ahmed, Palash Bhattacharjee, Marzia Farhana, Shahria Sharmin, and Munem Wasif.
