Documentation of my performance at @cove_park "নীল. Nil. Nargis. Blue. Bring in the tide with your moon..." 2019 filmed and photos by @anniecrabcake @jenstillhere @ashantisharda @emilixbeatriz
This work harnessed weaving with the unknowable depths of the sea, contrasts of violent beauty and occupied/militarized indigenous land. History of forced labour of Indigo production in Bengal. The watery languages of matrilineal trauma and trying to find an emotional literacy unspoken between generations and across diasporas.
