    QUICKSILVER'S WINGS

    2015

    ​

    Experimental Video Loop, sound, color, 3:16

     

    Despite the centuries-old survival of the fishing industry in Bengali life, the ritual itself is a controversial dependence: mercury-filled fish continue to reverse the population’s health, while the activity itself is stained in honor, tradition, patriarchy, and spiritual cleansing.

    ​

    Recorded in Rajshahi, Bangladesh, 2008.

    Exhbited at the Olive Tjaden Gallery (April 2016) , Cornell University, Ithaca, New York
