"Looking Through the Visual Culture of Mangal Shobhajatra in Bangladesh" - A Journal by Pallab Saha
Pallab Saha (Part-Time Teacher) publishes his first journal article. His article was published in the Journal of Fine Arts & Culture by The Fine Art School of Khulna University.
His research focuses on examining the decorative art objects produced or used in Mangal Shobhajatra, a ceremony celebrated every year on the 1st day of Bengali New Year, also known as Pohela Boishakh. He argues that art objects are agentive interlocutors in political and cultural processes. His manuscript focuses on the period between 1989 to 2023. His paper explores decorative art objects with their individual identity as a way of removing dark shadows by spreading the message of universal humanity and peace.
