Art and Oral Histories Preserve Shared Memories of India-Pakistan Partition
Two projects highlight efforts to preserve and share memories of the 1947 Partition of India and Pakistan. One, a tapestry called Khwab-e-Rafu, features stitched fabric pieces from people across India, Pakistan, and diaspora communities symbolizing shared histories and hopes for peace. Another, 'The Speaking Window,' is a book compiling oral histories from Partition survivors collected by collaborators from India, Pakistan, and Canada. Both initiatives aim to foster empathy and understanding across borders through personal stories and artistic expression.
