Stark Electric Jesus

What if a victim of rape isn't a female?

On a single, transformative day, a middle-aged fêted actress navigates the blurred lines between reel and reality, unearthing buried truths about identity, ageing, and the silent labour of care in a world that constantly rewrites her relevance.

1990s Goa, a curious 18-year-old uncovers her brother's hidden VHS stash. What begins as a clandestine screening evolves into a tender, electric awakening of her own unfathomable desires.

Anomalies transliterate a twin-channel simulation imagining the visual-semantic proximities to the medical conditions of fibrosis and thrombosis. The videos are disassociated from their provincial significations to reflect the barest textural surface of the conditions. Hindered blood channels, palpitation, restlessness, and breathing irregularities are mapped in their formalist rhythm with metaphoric linkages. The synthetic blend of visuals and noises attempts to retrace human corporeality in global systems of communication and primordial conditions of life. With the onset of the coronavirus pandemic and worldwide lockdown, it has become evident how transnational networks reconfigure in response to the often disavowed precarity of the human body. This work attempts to remember our organismic vulnerability amidst contemporary transactions.

Farrago is an unkempt diary that generates a stream of audio-visual dissonance without an attempt to resolve it. While some parts of the varied montage traverse along with contemporary political issues, other parts blend fictional and documentary narratives to spawn a meaningless tale of a city and its fathomless vigor. This film failingly tries to construct a narrative out of small, disjointed and unassociated clips; yet, this failure itself is imbued with sporadic instances of political statements.

The mystery of fire, air, and water anonymously countering the past, present, and future. Their counterparts are metamorphosed with three spectrum of color (red, green, and blue) psychology, shifting stances in this time of uncertainties. This video installation project is a loop presentation to hypnotize the audience in a way to interact with them in audio-visual medium with an idea to show the mirror image of their own life and the race they are running and losing or winning every day in exchange for their abandoned existence.

A story of a man stuck in between a season, the austere renunciation of time, the chance tone of a color that brings back memories of bygone days.
