Artist
Hosted in the colonial monument located in the center of Calcutta, the multimedia installation includes several elements brought together in a single standing historical structure. The installation uses historical textual and visual references to draw parallels both conceptually and visually. Using the original space as platform, it functions as a site specific interactive and participatory work.
Railway Track with Historical Dates on the Sleepers is a section of Structures of Memory: Modern Bengal.
