Painting of a Shrine in the Indus Delta
Material: oil paint on plywood
A network of sacred shrines continues to survive on the islands of the Indus Delta where most human inhabitants have been forced to leave. These water shrines are centred around graves of saints known to protect the delta. These enduring shrines function as miraculous anchors that ground, sustain and guide fisherfolk in an increasingly endangered world. Community artists make paintings of the shrines, to help displaced families stay connected to their sacred homelands.
印度河三角洲聖陵畫像
媒材:油彩合板
印度河三角洲的沙洲上屹立着許多聖陵,在居民已被迫遷離後仍然得以存續。人們相信它們所奉仰的聖人守護着三角洲。這些聖陵如同神奇的錨石,在日益不穩的世界中支撐、滋養、並指引一眾漁民社群。民間畫家描繪這些聖陵,讓流離失所的家庭與其神聖的故鄉保持連繫。
Painting of a Fish in the Indus Delta
Material: oil paint on plywood
Generations of residents in the Indus Delta sustained their families as fisherfolk, and they were stripped of their livelihood when they were displaced from the delta. In the streets and homes of their resettlement areas in Karachi, drawings of marine life abound, collectively recreating the rhythms of their former lives.
印度河三角洲魚群畫像
媒材:油彩合板
世代居住在印度河三角洲的家庭以捕魚維生,亦在迫不得已遷離後被剝奪生計。在卡拉奇的三角洲居民重置聚落裏,海洋生物的圖像常見於街頭與家居,共同重塑昔日的生活光景。
