Moyukh Chatterjee and Swara Bhaskar: Of Riots and Ruins
Moyukh Chatterjee and Swara Bhaskar: Of Riots and Ruins
The area of study of this project is a conglomeration of colonies inhabited by Muslims, Hindus and Dalits, located in Vatva, an industrial (previously agrarian) area on the outskirts of Ahmedabad. It was a site of violence during the 2002 carnage and is now informed by post-violence "compromised" peace. The project attempts to map on this spatial-geographic entity the processes by which contesting discourses of ethnicity, communal identity and multiple explanations for communalisation of "everyday" life are (re) produced.
