Abhishek Thapar went on a search for the truth(s) of the past when he decided to travel to his hometown. Together with his mother, father and sister, he re-visited his childhood home: a house that had disappeared, a place they all thought they had forgotten and which yet persisted, preserved in a jar of haunting images, between official histories and the personal memories of three generations. In a final pursuit of closure, the family returned to the house and moved back in. Together they created a work of art…
In the intimate setting of his performance, Abhishek Thapar unfolds moments from a personal journey into a contorted past in dialogue with documents from an attempt of a ritual of - ‘going back, to make sure that you have forgotten about the past’.
