Amitav Ghosh in conversation with Sukrita Paul | Jungle Nama

They say when you retell a legend or listen to one, new voices come to it to haunt and change the narrative. The exhibition ‘Very Small Feelings’ relies on storytelling, power of the spoken word, and how a story travels and changes from ear to ear, one body to another. It treats oral as a vast resource holding together the folk and the indigenous cultural expressions and way of life.

In the exhibition, Amitav Ghosh’s Jungle Nama expands into a spatial installation with contributions from Salman Toor and Ali Sethi, as an urgent story of our times. Within the story, the rhyme and meter of speaking out the words has a spell-like effect of invoking the guardian of the forest, Bon Bibi. In this conversation led by Sukrita Paul, Amitav Ghosh will speak on different oralities, and the allegorical aspects of lores and legends, and the climate stories, memories, ecological escapades hidden in them and the relationship of people with their environments.

Date: 14th July
Time: 6 PM
Venue:Kiran Nadar Museum of Art, Delhi
