A visual exhibit that is a performance of embodied refusal. Conceptualized and captured by Sugat, performed by Karishma, this exhibit forwards an understanding of consent and its implications. No +ve contributes towards the important conversation about struggling with boundaries and looking at the outcome as positive, needed and necessary.
Drawing the implication of refusal onto the body, the artists represent the visceral journey of saying no. Through the mechanics of fine art photography, Sugat captures the bodied, the disembodied and the unbodied in his images; and the desperate frenzy towards liberation in his video.
Together, this visual exhibit presents a personal interpretation of uttering a NO.
