India Pavilion at Venice Biennale Explores Concepts of Home and Belonging
The India Pavilion at the Venice Biennale, curated by Amin Jaffer, presents an exhibition titled 'Geographies of Distance: Remembering Home.' The exhibition features six newly commissioned works that explore themes of home, memory, displacement, and belonging. The pavilion, supported by India's Ministry of Culture and private foundations, uses traditional materials like bamboo and earth to reflect India's civilizational ethos. The exhibition aims to project India's cultural heritage on an international stage, highlighting the fragility and endurance of home as a concept beyond physical structures.
