The Sethusamudram Project was a 3 year collaborative art project that
Theertha International Artists Collective, Colombo, Sri Lanka and 1.Shanthi
Road Studio, Bengaluru, India had developed collectively envisioning in
engaging with and addressing this highly complex and variegated history and
emotions surrounding the concept of Sethusamudram. This included the
foreground, links, similarities, and shared anxieties, emotions and histories
between the two geographical areas. The overall research area covered a wide
area of study that included society, politics, history, religion, mythology as
relevant to Sri Lanka and India.
The Sethusamudram Project engaged in the wider discussion of history navigating
through the contemporary dynamics of art (involvement with, and discussion on
ideological and methodological innovations of visual arts) within the region.
This project unfolded a collaborative and dialog making platform where Theertha
and 1 Shanthi Road responded to each other. All the programs were reciprocal
and were a continuation and progression from one to the other.
