Unraveling Silence Solo Exhibition
“Unraveling Silence Solo Exhibition” Oct 10 – Nov 29, 2025 Bengal Shilpalay, Dhaka, Bangladesh A solo exhibition of soft sculptures and textile works rooted in Bangladesh’s material heritage — nakshi kantha quilts, jamdani weaving, and zari embroidery — reclaiming fabric long dismissed as craft into feminist, political art. The work draws on the colonial destruction of thriving weaving traditions by the British East India Company and the artist’s personal encounter with five unemployed Jamdani weavers who began working again through family support. Each thread holds memory of land, labor, migration, and womanhood, foregrounding what refuses to disappear.
