It is a different world altogether when viewing it from the lens of a deaf person. Beneath lies a world of longing, colourful imagination, and a treasure trove of silent memories. Throughout this week, to celebrate International Day of Sign Languages [September 23] and International Week of Deaf People [September 22 to 28], Freedom to Sign, a platform providing a stage for deaf artistes, is opening an exhibition, Echoes of Silence, at Artists’ Centre, Kala Ghoda, with a pre-opening event this evening. The exhibition displays powerful works of seven artists from different backgrounds, specialising in varying crafts.
