Un-Claimed
Urban F®ictions
Video installation

Surekha has been exploring the possibilities of the video form, negotiating the public and private spaces. She uses photography and video to archive, document and perform. The current video installation“Un-Claimed & other Urban F(r)ictions” highlights the unusual pre-occupations of people who assign a specific personality to the city. They propose a sense of self-dependence, an alternative mode of life pre-occupation; and a notion of restrain against the loss of individuation through global uniformity. And these videos contain a different take on the city’s personality exposing the stark reality of the city.

The videos are shown with an installation of E-resource , along with the idea of recycling, leading to the possible sanity of the city and the notion of the urban.
