SUMMARY:Mangoes and Meaning: Histories\, Ecologies and Cultural Imagination
DESCRIPTION:We are delighted to announce our upcoming exhibition ‘Mangoes & Meanings: Histories\, Ecologies and Cultural Imagination’\, featuring responses to India’s favourite fruit by over 40 artists! \nExpect to encounter the mango in ways you may not have before. After all\, this isn’t just any fruit-it’s aam\, the common thread that connects us all. This exhibition brings together personal\, cultural\, ecological\, and communal perspectives\, reflecting on what it means to grow a mango\, to sit in the shade of its tree\, to share it with neighbours\, and to spend long summers in its presence. The exhibition explores how this fruit becomes a symbol of place\, of season\, and of belonging. \nJoin us at ‘Mangoes & Meanings’ and spend summer the way it was meant to be-in the presence\, and the abundance\, of mangoes. \nVisit the Museum of Goa to discover the many stories of the mango. \nThe exhibition will be open for public viewing from the 9th of May till the 14th of June\, 2026.

SUMMARY:Requiem of a Mangrove Forest: Film screening and discussion
DESCRIPTION:This MOG Sunday presents a screening of Requiem of a Mangrove Forest\, a documentary chronicling the gradual death of two mangrove forests in Merces and Corlim\, Goa\, between 2021 and 2024. The film traces the ecological consequences of climate change\, salinity shifts\, dam flooding\, and illegal waste disposal\, documenting how fragile ecosystems are reshaped by human intervention and environmental neglect. \nThrough drone footage\, underwater imagery\, and an immersive visual language\, the documentary approaches the mangrove forest not merely as a landscape but as a living collective connected through roots\, water systems\, and mycelial networks. Inspired in part by the aftermath of the 2018 Kerala floods\, the film reflects on water as both a sacred entity and a contested resource\, while exploring the emotional and political dimensions of ecological collapse. \nThe screening will be followed by a panel discussion with filmmakers Payal Kakkar and Doel Trivedy on environmental storytelling\, visual anthropology\, and the role of artistic practice in imagining more sustainable futures. \nFree Entry | RSVP compulsory\nPlease WhatsApp your name to +91 7722089666

SUMMARY:A Current Practice in Editorial Design: Rukminee Guha Thakurta & Dolly Sahiar — A Predecessor’s Practice
DESCRIPTION:This MOG Sunday brings together contemporary design practice and historical research through a talk by graphic designer\, writer\, and editor Rukminee Guha Thakurta. Structured in two parts\, the session begins with Rukminee reflecting on her own trajectory as an editorial designer working across art\, photography\, museums\, and independent publishing. \nThe second half revisits the work and legacy of Dolly Sahiar\, the influential designer associated with Marg magazine\, whose contributions shaped the visual language of Indian publishing in the twentieth century. Through archival inquiry and critical reflection\, the session considers questions of authorship\, design histories\, and the often-unseen labour behind editorial production. \nDrawing from her extensive experience collaborating with artists\, publishers\, and institutions internationally\, Rukminee will also speak about publication-making as a space where art\, research\, and storytelling intersect. The talk offers an opportunity to engage with editorial design not simply as a technical discipline\, but as a cultural and intellectual practice. \nFree Entry | RSVP compulsory\nPlease WhatsApp your name to +91 7722089666

SUMMARY:Stories of Love\, Equality & Justice: Film screening and discussion

SUMMARY:A Sacred Place: Documentary film screening and discussion
DESCRIPTION:This concluding MOG Sunday for June presents a screening of A Sacred Place (2026)\, followed by a conversation between anthropologist and filmmaker Dolly Kikon and journalist Chitrangada Choudhury. \nSet in Makhel\, a Mao Naga village in northern Manipur\, the film explores the intertwined relationships between land\, memory\, spirituality\, and ecology. Through oral histories\, visual ethnography\, and geological storytelling\, A Sacred Place traces the lives of intergenerational storytellers and the sacred salt springs and sandstone monoliths that shape the cosmology and history of the region. \nMakhel—meaning “a sacred place” in the Mao Naga language—becomes the site through which the film asks urgent contemporary questions: can sacredness survive amid ecocide and relentless development? How do Indigenous knowledge systems understand stewardship\, kinship\, and coexistence with the more-than-human world? \nPart of the Lithic Worlds research engagement\, the film foregrounds Indigenous pedagogy and community histories while reflecting on the environmental futures of fragile landscapes. The post-screening conversation will expand on these themes through discussions on storytelling\, ecology\, and belonging in Northeast India. \nFree Entry | RSVP compulsory\nPlease WhatsApp your name to +91 7722089666
