Female Body and the Sexualized Space Session II
29 August 2013
Speakers: Nilima Sheikh, Sheba Chhachhi, Sonia Khurana, Kumkum Sangri
Moderator: Gayatri Sinha
In the second session of this panel, the discussion shifted its focus from the female body to the sexualized space. The talk progressed in the context of how the body is seen inhabiting and exploring a male discourse by assuming the position of a speaking subject. The sexualized space in India has to withstand and navigate through the challenges of the state, which is constantly in a state of flux, never fully formed and can be characterized as a space for trauma.
This was Part II of the seventh symposium in the Museum Document series, curated by Gayatri Sinha.
