Rest Now, Sleep Later
Open Studio & Listening Session / November 30, 2022
Tasneem (Bangalore, India) explores sound, connection, and healing as a way to cope with the dusty work culture of the post-pandemic techno-capitalist era. Inspired by ancient Indian wisdom through mantras and chants, she aims to create a spatial sound work as a performative and experiential piece that addresses themes of work, productivity, and burnout, as well as illness, fatigue, and the bodily abuse caused by our obsession with productivity.

Viewed through the lens of spirituality, she uses her yoga and meditation practice as the foundation for her work, critically examining the effects of technology on mind and body. She works with sound, video, performance, and drawing on paper. Tasneem had her first solo exhibition at Cholamandal Artists’ Village, Chennai (2018), and holds an MFA from Kingston School of Art, London.
