The entanglement with past memories, emotions and experiences

Pichutaan delves into the profound theme of entanglement with past memories through the lens of Tasmina K Majles, artist living in diaspora. Tasmina is a Bangladeshi-born migrant living in Australia for over a decade now. The landscapes of her adopted country evoke both familiarity and strangeness, blurring the boundaries between the known and the unknown. The work offers a deep and introspective exploration of the artist's personal journey, navigating the complex terrain of identity, longing, memories of her home country and a sense of disconnection in everyday life as a migrant. She uses metaphoric tropes such as birds, nests, and stones to depict her migration journey and to symbolize the weight of memories she carries within. The work serves as a conduit that intricately intertwines time, memories, and connection.
