Kōrero
Join artist Pallavi Paul for a floor talk of her solo exhibition at Te Tuhi, To Be in Someone Else’s Prayer. The exhibition stems from her February 2026 research residency in Aotearoa. It offers a tender, investigative response to recent medical, political, and ecological crises by imagining the exhibition as a chadar: a fabric laid over the graves of loved ones and patron saints as an offering of refuge and healing.
