Jalsaghar Curator Tour

Join us on 11 April (1-2pm) for our Curator’s Tour of Jalsaghar with KARST’s Head of Programme, Ben Borthwick. Free to attend and no booking necessary. Debjani Banerjee’s exhibition Jalsaghar is an intricate exploration of identity, culture, and heritage. The title, which translates from Bengali as “The Music Room”, hints at a space of collaboration and cultural expression. Banerjee’s works delve into the multifaceted nature of her British Bengali identity, shaped by her experiences growing up in England during the 1980s. This backdrop provides a rich tapestry for examining the layers of cultural dissonance and hybridity that define her perspective.
