BACK & AGAIN: Re-turn, Re-birth, and Re-generation
75 Years Post-Partition: Artist Pritika Chowdhry on her Partition Anti-Memorial Project
In 2007, Pritika Chowdhry created her installation, Queering Mother India, an anti-memorial that examines the experience of women in the Partition of India in 1947. Since then she has continued to build on this body of work through the Partition Anti-Memorial Project. Chowdhry excavates the counter-memories of the Partition and creates experiential art installations that are anti-memorials to the Partition through the dual lenses of postmemory and diasporic (dis)location.
