Đinh Thảo Linh has immersed herself in the daily life of the museum and the surrounding area, engaging with its essence as part of the artist residency at Conflictorium. Through a (fictional) mysterious box received anonymously before she arrived in India, Linh speculates on the life of Bachuben Nagarwala, Ahmedabad’s first certified hairdresser, by (re)creating a hair salon in Bachuben’s former workspace, the Gool Lodge. As she creates and adds artifacts to this archival box and blurs the lines between past and present, the question arises: Is the hairdresser Linh, Bachuben, or the unknown sender?
This Open Studio is an invitation to be a part of Linh’s reimagination of the space as a salon and kitchen and to share your stories, food, and hair experiments.
