Anindita Banerjee: Finding Dada
Events Burwood, Whitehorse, Victoria
13 May 2026 to 7 Aug 2026 Daily Event
Anindita Banerjee is an interdisciplinary artist and twice uprooted seat migrant living on the lands of the Wadawurrung people of the Kulin Nation (Ballarat, Victoria). Her work interrogates ideas of cultural otherness, authentic identity, and the sense of home.
This exhibition features photographic portraits of male figures in her life, including from the Indigenous community, in whom she finds reflections of her Dada’s (grandfather’s) facial features. She overlays these portraits with patterns reconstructed from memories of ritualistic ceremonies and mark-making.
While creating these gestural hybrid rituals, she wonders where her place is as an immigrant to the unceded lands of present-day Australia.
Curated by Kira Godoroja-Prieckaerts.
