SHUNDORI – By Naina Sen
October 1 @ 8:00 am - October 11 @ 5:00 pm
Delhi-born artist Naina Sen has spent five years creating an ambitious video installation between India and Australia that asks what it means to be an “Indian woman” today.
SHUNDORI, opening at HOTA on October 1, brings together mythology, ritual, contemporary Indian culture, personal storytelling and the experiences of South Asian women in the diaspora.
The multi-channel installation was created collaboratively with more than 500 women across India and the Indian diaspora in Australia.
Now based between Darwin and New Delhi, Sen’s own life straddles the two countries, giving the work a distinctly India-Australia perspective.
