Invoking Justice

Director: Deepa Dhanraj
India, 2011, 86’, Color, Tamil, English with English and Turkish subtitles

The village leaders... Or rather, the council of elders... No matter what you call them, it’s always a group of men who make the decisions. In an attempt to turn this process on its head, a group of women in India seek to establish their own decision-making mechanisms. But in their struggle to do so, how will they stand up to the men’s councils and the police?

Good News from the Skies

Inspired by the exhibition And Now the Good News, which focusing on the relationship between mass media and art, we prepared horoscope readings based on the chapters of the exhibition. Using the popular astrological language inspired by the effects of the movements of celestial bodies on people, these readings with references to the works in the exhibition make fictional future predictions inspired by the horoscope columns that we read in the newspapers with the desire to receive good news about our day.
