Yukti is an artist, among other things. Her work navigates the diabolical experience of belonging and unbelonging in a world that is fractured — and still rapidly fracturing. Through fabric, she unravels histories that have been forgotten, erased, clawed, neutralized: stories of war, nation-building, and diasporic identity. By examining how our individual and collective memories of such events are contorted, warped, and re-authored when revisited, her practice traces these tangled narratives across geopolitical boundaries that resist repair, in search of small, possible acts of reconstitution.
