Kolam is an exhibition, an action, a space, an exploration. Mimicking its namesake*, it acts as an invitation to Tamil women and other marginalised communities to hold space and have voice within contemporary cultural production. Cross the threshold, Cross that line, defy the mythological man. Erase the kolam.
This liminal space explores the plurality of Tamil identity, the contradictions, the poetics, and the politics. It negotiates what we bring forward through the threshold, what we leave behind. It seeks the right to self-determine.
How do I define my postcolonial Tamil identity? She takes multiple forms. They take multiple shapes.
