Kahi-Suni (कही - सुनी )

 

An Interactive and Participatory Installation by Ashmi Mridul and Sneha Joshi
कही – सुनी (Kahi-Suni) is a research project that delves into the subject of marriage migration, a common custom followed by women in India. By engaging with women from different age groups and socio-economic backgrounds, personal stories were collected as oral histories of women’s experiences of marriage migration. The project is as much a research into the subject of marital migration as it is a platform for women to express themselves. The research will be presented as an interactive installation. Audiences are also encouraged to leave behind their own stories or that they have heard from others, such as their relatives or friends. This project received its seed grant for Gender Bender 2019, with the support of Goethe Institute Bangalore and Sandbox Collective.
