Inherited nostalgia is a phantom limb.
Among the countless victims of the Indian Partition and the Bangladesh Liberation War was my family. Repeated transgenerational migratory flow trudges on with the silt of nostalgia accumulating over generations. Shared memories become intangible relics of a distant life; to me these are not unlike phantom limbs, parts of me I cannot see in my current life, remembrances of torn organs of my ancestors' grief and nostalgia, bereavement of a homeland. The pieces in this series embody these fragments of my family's journey I carry inside of me, intangible relics of loss.
