Contemporary Indian Feminism Is A Scroll Away, 2016. Digital collage
This digital collage is a compilation of screenshots archived through social media applications like Snapchat, Twitter and Facebook. In a broader context, this collage discusses the role of social media in informing a normative framework for cultural identity. Realizing these screen shots into digital collage speaks to the overwhelming way that social media and the Internet also inform non-residential Indians of the Indian feminist movement. Images collected include screen shots of women celebrating Holi from Snapchat's "Holi in India" live event juxtaposed against a photograph of a banner put up in the holy city of Varanasi on Holi, warning women celebrating the religious holiday to be wary of drunk men on the same day. Also included are screenshots of headlines and tweets from Indian news accounts like the Hindustani Times and international social news and entertainment companies like Buzzfeed and the Independent.
