Elon Kierre explores contemporary narratives on rural rituals: from local harvest celebrations like kekri, to personal encounters and family history. The exhibition explores rituals in the context of the rural today and encourages us to think beyond the present, and to break down notions of class, identity, gender, and work, in order to facilitate a discussion on more sustainable and intersectional ways of living, knowing and caring.
