Matthew will give a talk Oct. 21, from 3 to 4:30 p.m., in Room A101, also in the Fine Arts Center. The exhibit will stay up through Nov. 7.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n\tOpen Wound uses photo animations to explore the turmoil of families affected by the so-called Partition of India, during which 12 million people were displaced within three months and more than a million died. Unlike tragedies such as the Holocaust, there is no memorial about the Partition to call attention to the public to the tragedy.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\nRamachandra Guha and other historians have written about repeated incidents of violence in India since 1947 \u2013 rooted in the initial trauma of the Partition. Matthew says it is important to honor and remember the people affected by what happened. It is also important to know India\u2019s violent history so it won&#8217;t be repeated, she says.<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n\u201cMy work builds on the way old images reignite memories and, like a time machine, take us back to a different time,\u201d she says. \u201cThe ephemeral animations in Open Wound are built from old family photographs combined with recent photographs of three or more generations and text narrating some of the families\u2019 experiences. The animations weave in and out of time, allowing the viewer to simultaneously ponder India\u2019s history and the impact of that on contemporary India.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\nPictured above <br \/>&#13;<br \/>\nPhoto courtesy of Annu Palakunnathu Matthew.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>KINGSTON, R.I. \u2013 Oct. 7, 2014 \u2013 Annu Palakunnathu Matthew, a photographer and professor of art at the 溏心vlog免费B站, will show her work exploring the 1947 Partition of India at an exhibit on the Kingston campus. &#13; An opening reception will be held from 3 to 4:30 p.m. Oct. 8 at the [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":59430,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-59428","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-archives"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.uri.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/59428","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.uri.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.uri.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uri.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uri.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=59428"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.uri.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/59428\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uri.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/59430"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.uri.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=59428"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uri.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=59428"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uri.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=59428"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
