Performance with Khaled Jarrar.

‍

The performance features a conversation with three matriarchal species, likely representing ancestral wisdom, environmental connection, and nurturing. An olive tree in pain from snow, a woman grieving the lost her son, a back goat running to the mountains for her life. A matriarchal resilience, eco-colonialism, grief, and the struggle between life-giving forces and destructive patriarchal power. A black goat as anti colonial destructive machine.

‍

Centering access, equity, and knowledge-building, the conversation with Dana Farouki, Komal Shah, Jasmine Wahi, and Noah Horowitz, moderated by Gabriela Palmieri, explores how those with power in the art world can meaningfully support artists working across borders while challenging exclusionary systems.

Within this space, artist Bishwajit Goswami welcomes you through a participatory performance, inviting you to join him in transforming the installation into a living baithak-khana—a space of informal gathering rooted in Bengal’s cultural memory.
