12 Baishakh: Camp.Hub with Nepali contemporary Artists at Thulo Byasi

CAMP.HUB

Experience by nature is subjective. The two quakes that hit Central Nepal affected thousands; their stories are varied and each one uniquely personal. However, the incident has pervasively unsettled the relationship cultivated by individuals to their surrounding.

In Thulo Byasi, an entire community was displaced.

Artree’s practice seeks to understand the way history and culture shapes the socio-ecological context of the people. Particularly in a city as culturally endowed as Bhaktapur, indigenous skills and vernacular knowledge is embedded in the fabric of the community – often concentrated within localities and greatly divergent in between. Using these two formidable connections: one of locality and the other of vernacular culture, Artree’s Camp.Hub hopes to reflect on the sense of belonging, while presenting the experiences of a quake-affected people.

Camp.Hub artists and collaborators seek to reimagine the communal spaces as an outlet for creative expression. Through site-specific artworks and complementary research it hopes to present the story of Thulo Byasi and its inhabitants in an unprecedented narrative.
