And the Last Remnants Memory Destroys

documentary heritage
  • Kupu whakaahua

    Lithograph, printed in pink and black ink, from two stones; photo-etching, printed in black ink, from one plate; photo-screenprint, printed in black ink, from one screen; hand-coloured in blue watercolour on paper. "Sandrasegar decided to look at the role of women on the home front during the First World War for her print. The first layer of Sandrasegar’s work is an image that references the drawings women in India create on the walls of houses.

    The scenes traditionally depicted Hindu/Ramayana stories or scenes from everyday life, here transposed to reflect the everyday of the FWW soldier and stories told of their service rendered in a feminine style and colour. The next layers are an image of a letter to a female relative of Sandrasegar’s replying to her enquiries into the whereabouts of her husband as she had not heard for some time. The photographic image was taken by Sandrasegar of the house this relative lived in Melbourne. The badge is Female Relatives Badge given to women whose husbands and sons served during the FWW." - Australian War Memorial

  • Artist's bio:
    "With parents from Australia and Malaysia, Sangeeta Sandrasegar spent her childhood between both countries. Her exploration of India and Australia, as personal sites of both homecoming and ancestry, and as nations with related colonial histories, has influenced her recent projects. Sandrasegar’s practice consolidates postcolonial and hybridity theory, exploring her context within Australia and its relationship to migrant communities and homelands. Her work
    is based around the intersection of differing, often clashing, cultures and she investigates the similarities and disparities in histories that are both literary and visual. Sandrasegar has exhibited widely both locally and internationally, and is the recipient of several fellowships and prizes." - Australian War Memorial
