From the PHOTONOLA 2017 website<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Priya Kambli\u2019s artwork is intrinsically tied to her own family\u2019s photographic legacy and her move at age 18, following the death of her parents, from India to the United States. Before she emigrated, she and her sister split their photographic inheritance in half. One portion remained in India, and the other was displaced along with Priya, in America. For the past decade, that archive of family photographs has been Priya\u2019s primary source material in creating bodies of work which explore the migrant narrative and experience; albeit through a personal lens. Priya\u2019s work has always touched upon universal themes, with the potential to start a dialogue about cultural differences and universal similarities. In the last year those private references and broad themes have taken on a new public significance that requires a creative response, by delving deeper into her own immigrant narrative, engaging with its personal but increasingly, if accidentally, political context.<\/p>\n

In this free public presentation, Priya Kambli will discuss her bodies of work which explore the migrant narrative and experience as seen through a personal lens, beginning with her book Color Falls Down, and continuing through her latest project Buttons for Eyes.<\/p>\n
