bangaloREsidency Final Showing
Gözde Ju invites you to her Final Showing, the outcome of her
bangaloREsidency@1Shanthiroad.
The Exhibition
Pride, Wisdom, and Garden, produced in collaboration with local artisans and women’s communities in Bangalore traces the experiences of women, initiates dialogues and identifies domestic cultural objects and materials, and collects individual stories about the cultural heritage inherited from their mothers related to handicrafts from different cultural ethnicities. The Exhibition delves deeply into women’s stories, weaving her own family history with the shared experiences of many others. Ju’s art examines how identity, belonging, and generational memory are stitched into every fibre of these handmade items. The Exhibition opens a dialogue across geographies, blending Ju's experiences with those of other women. Elements of the Exhibition, produced in collaboration with local artisans and women’s communities in Bangalore, add a new dimension to this narrative. Each encounter with cultural symbols unique to a new geography enriches her story, highlighting both the distinctiveness and commonality of women’s handicrafts. By honouring the ethnic heritage passed down from mothers to
daughters, Ju aims to create a collective story stitched from individual lives.
