Read the ArtReview feature on CWIT alumni Soumya Sankar Bose

Through this feature ‘In Search of Lost Time’ by Najrin Islam we learn of Bose’s drive to collect information premised on both a response to, and fear of loss.

This work (2020- ) is on the disappearance of my mother during the autumn of 1969. She had been sent to the neighborhood sweet shop to buy sweetmeats for a religious offering on the 24th of October. The little girl of nine went prancing to the confectionery but did not return until three years later. 

Najrin Islam, writer, film programmer and fellow CWIT alumni is writing about Soumya’s work which we highlighted during his recent residency and exhibition at London’s Delfina Foundation.
