Chandigarh, India’s first planned city designed by Le Corbusier, reflects European modernist ideals of rationalism, efficiency, and social improvement through design. The perfmance took place in front of the Chandigarh Art Museum, inviting visitors to interpret photographs of public statues depicting “great” Europeans. The freedom that parody offers becomes a moment when history and monumentality are theirs to embody. [18-parted photo series, 2017]
