Often we confront our true selves, an assertive voice of being through uncomfortable situations, circumstances, crisis or struggle. Unfortunately, those moments of discomfort are often grounded on the societal hegemonic, both explicit and implied codes of being, behaving, experiencing, understanding, and interpreting. When we find ourselves in those discomfort/ challenging moments, we may respond to comply, resist, remain indifferent, revolve, reflect, observe and many more ways. These moments of discomfort present itself and affect different races, ethnicities, and individuals with collectives and communities differently. 16 diverse artists, coming together to present the idea of discomfort in their own subjective ways. Bookmarks of Discomfort is conceived and curated by New York-based transdisciplinary artist Priyanka Das.
