Kadambari’s audiovisual project arises from her questioning of the negative racial stereotypes prevalent in the Global South. As a woman navigating a colonial society, she explores the labels attached to identity and the connections between diasporas and communities around the world.
Through this journey, Kadambari immerses herself in diverse cultures, transforming everyday coexistence into a living document of memory that captures the emotions, experiences, and sounds of landscapes that bind people together.
Through her audiovisual recordings, she creates a vibrant narrative, with her documentation serving as a testament to lived experiences. These sensitive archives trace how the imprint of displacement can be transformed into poetic material.
