As we transition from childhood to adulthood, the experiences and narratives we encounter shape our existence. This year’s exhibition explores the folkloric tales, dances, music, proverbs, and games integral to our upbringing, revealing the shared experiences that thread through our lives. Through visually compelling representations, this exhibition captures the essence of these cultural treasures, illustrating how they weave the tapestry of our collective heritage and emphasizing the interconnection of our individual narratives.
Showcasing 12 artworks selected through an open call, Memory Box by Tasmeem is free and open to the public.
