Around 40 contemporary queer visual artists are presenting their works to present queer lived realities. The programming also includes performances, walkthroughs and launch of an in-house zine. The show prods you to “see us, our family, our queerness, our politics, our desires, our thriving,” states the exhibition note. Some interesting performances include The Void in Avoid by performing artist Anurag Dubey and poet Teya, who depict the journey of an individual in search of significance. Then there isThe Songs We Sang by Pooja Nair, who identifies as lesbian, and will be singing songs of revolution in Hindi.
