My Private Himalaya
// objects / bodies and spirituality
a work in research by Ibrahim Quraishi
ibrahimquraishi.org/performing_arts/himalaya.php
My Private Himalaya questions the objectification of how people and objects become functional transmitters through material goods with gods, divine energy and extraterrestrial realities. In this living installation the dramaturgy of objects is related to icons and iconographic gestures transcending into movement ephemerally coming from religions and conflictual realities of alienation.
