In response to global upheaval, our initiative counters displacement, hatred, and environmental crises. With a foundation in community-based art over two decades, Chander Haat extends art beyond galleries, fostering collaboration with nine international artists. Our dream materializes in site-specific installations, intertwining art with the lives of marginalized communities in low lands.

This has been our dream, carved from our journey in community based art practice through these not so long two and a half decades from which has emerged Chander Haat. Along with nine artists from Mongolia, Kazakhstan, Taiwan, SriLanka, Nepal and Bangladesh it promises to be our everyday practice, an essential part of our life, residency in art, for this next two weeks between 5th and 20th of March 2019 during which amalgamating forms through workshops we shall collectively develop site specific installations in these lowlands; home to one of the most marginalised people of this world.
