"Gangaburi Performance"

“Nov 15–17, 2025
2 hrs” “Buriganga River, Dhaka, Bangladesh
Brihatta Art Foundation” A river heritage performance responding to the Buriganga River — once the lifeblood of Dhaka’s trade and craftsmanship — now under severe environmental pressure from pollution and urban expansion. The work pauses the relentless pace of city life to reflect honestly on the river’s declining state, often invoked for ritual purposes but rarely protected. Using charcoal and indigo, the artist writes a letter of truth to the river, acknowledging its reality and the collective negligence surrounding it.
