Seminar 1. Living in Rain | Jan 20, 2021

In this public seminar and screening, we share the results of two projects- Monsoon in Lallubhai, and Wet Mud and Muddy Waters- that document the ways in which Mumbai’s residents inhabit its relentlessly wet terrain. How might the arts of living with wetness generate new imaginaries, aspirations and designs for the future?
