Artist Talk: Zihan Karim
Projecting Memory: Creative Explorations by a Bangladeshi Visual Artist

We are pleased to welcome Zihan Karim, one of the leading contemporary artists in Bangladesh, who will present his artistic practice over the past decade. Known for his outstanding use of video, sound, and installation, through which he explores new artistic expressions around themes of memory, we hope to learn how Karim engages with social contexts and reconsiders everyday life, with a particular focus on five representative video works. The artist is also expected to share his experience as an artist-in-residence in 2014 in Fukuoka and his connections to the city.
