His-Story and Her-Story, is a collective account of four young contemporary artists, exploring personal narratives on distinct moments. All intimate part of their life experiences that overlapped between individual progressions to that of a larger societal perspective. Things like, dealing with issues of how does one place themselves in these times? Or how they have matured from the incidents they had in past? They weave these historical moments into their empirical life-narratives. While in continuous interaction with artists, I sense that most artists’ past is memoirs of retrospect. They are witnesses to the kind of heightened drama that affect or prompt their creative process. They recount the incidents of legendary moments. They serve these personal narratives in various methods. Few of those experiences that now have become their works of art.
