Singed but not Burnt

by Shahidul Alam, Ina Puri (Editor)

Singed But Not Burnt provides a rare and candid insight into the transition of a research chemist, into a fine artist, to a human rights activist and institution builder. The changing visual vocabulary and the organisational struggles are shown against the backdrop of successive political leaders attempting to hijack a democratic process. The resistance of the people against repression gives context not only to a cultural movement that stands tall in an environment of fear, but also to the workings of autocratic regimes.
