How do multiple identities—scientist, writer, translator, editor, poet—intersect with our experience of urban space? Join us for an intimate dialogue between Kannada writer and poet Dadapeer Jyman and editor-translator Indira Chandrasekhar as they explore the relationship between writer and city.
The conversation examines Bangalore through contrasting lenses—Indira’s experience as a long-time resident witnessing decades of transformation, and Dadapeer’s perspective as a more recent arrival with deep connections to his hometown.
The year-long curation of City Scripts will delve into the profound roots of our personal and public memories, histories and narratives through fiction, collections, archives, cultural practices and more.
Imagine the city as our collective garden. We nurture the seeds of our personal stories, carrying them with us and planting them in our neighbourhoods and backyards. There is always more to experience in a garden: entangled roots of our past, yellowing leaves falling with time, and the green tendrils of new ideas.
