Connecting people through art 

We are thrilled to share that Shahana Rajani will participite in an upcoming artist talk at the Ishara Art Foundation, presented in conjunction with the current exhibition The sky held it, the earth remembered (on view from 11 September to 15 December 2026).

The conversation brings together Rajani alongside fellow exhibiting artists Rohini Devasher and Sarker Protick,touching upon Rajani’s work Lines That World A River (2026) within the broader context of the show. Produced as the result of Rajani winning the Han Nefkens Foundation – South Asian Video Art Production Grant 2023 in collaboration with Prameya Art Foundation, New Delhi, the work is presented in partnership with Ishara Art Foundation, Dubai; Nottingham Contemporary; Museum of Contemporary Art Tokyo (MOT); Museum of Contemporary Art Antwerp (M HKA); and Para Site, Hong Kong.

Moderated by Ishara Director Sasha Altaf, the session revisits the dialogue between the artists and curator that took shape during the conceptualisation of the exhibition.

Taking the exhibition as a point of departure, the conversation moves across a range of ideas connecting their practices—from the relationship between human and more-than-human worlds to different ways of sensing, relating to, and living through environmental crisis.
