Suchitra Mattai participates in the 14th Sharjah Biennial
“For the 14th Sharjah Biennial, which runs through June 10, the exhibition’s three curators—Zoe Butt, Omar Kholeif, and Claire Tancons—gave it a title appropriate for today: Leaving the Echo Chamber. Through the 80 artists they present, they pose the following questions: What does it mean to demand alternative images at a time when news is spoon-fed to us by a monopoly of sources? How do we expand our narratives by acknowledging what has been hidden or removed? How can we reflect on our own culturally located histories in an era when so many individuals have been forced to believe that they most surrender their own agency to the mainstream forces that exist and govern our world?”
