Date: 30 August – 3 September, 2022

Time: 4 PM – 8 PM

Venue: Dwip Gallery, 1/1 Lalmatia Block-D, Dhaka

This story is about the city of Dhaka; a subjective narrative of the different circumstances/situations/experiences in the context of the city. Just as this story contains commentary/critique of urban economic, political, cultural, and power structures, representations of private, intimate moments are included. Call it a docu-fiction constructed through a dialectical understanding between the broader structures and an individual. City Subconscious - A Ghartera project - is curated by Kazi Tahsin Agaz Apurbo, Doito Bonotulshi, and Ata Mojlish.
