" Art breathes in it's community of artists. It is impossible to promote the former without the strength and determination of the latter. As an artist myself, I have observed closely the impact of compromised democracy on art and it's honesty. As a Millennium Fellow, I will have the platform and reach to be able to collaborate with Fellow like-minded artists (aren't we all?). I thoroughly look forward to it! "
Millennium Fellowship Project: Project Kalaakaar
