Beauty Boarding, Old Dhaka

1 Square Mile, Britto Arts Trust

Medium: Photoshopped selfies using old photographs of distinct places of old Dhaka. Tea stall conversations played through two horn loudspeakers.

Life flows with time, just like a river. Like Buriganga flows – or does it? Has it become a mere place where unwanted memories are dumped? New Dhaka or Old Dhaka has thousands of memories stored in every nook and corner till today – memories good, memories bad. So many lost words, conversations, emotions – can these lost voices embedded in time be heard?
