Archiving Tamang community’s excluded history

Visual artist Subas Tamang’s ongoing exhibition, ‘Kaiten: History, Memory and Identity’ is an attempt to document the history of the Tamang community.

When visitors arrived at the Siddhartha Art Gallery on a recent afternoon to look at the gallery’s ongoing exhibition, ‘Kaiten: History, Memory and Identity’, many of them were immediately hooked on the aesthetics of the artworks. Through the hallway, they moved quietly and carefully to discern the details of the images.
