A fragmentation of memory is evident throughout the migratory experience and tends to expose myriad themes, from spiritual cosmologies to its queering trajectories. These affects elucidate the notion of hybridity as a condition for identities that have been historically subject to rupture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQuestions that illuminate the political significance of materiality emerge from spaces, often domestic, that Katki dwells between. Personal and familial artefacts that were once consumed are now restored to be contextualised again through the ecological, aesthetic and cultural slippages of ancient Zoroastrian knowledge systems. Ongoing investigations into plurality manifest in Katki's spatial interventions and installations, which frame the lived experience through reclaimed and found materials. These delicate textualities are embalmed with traditional processes of mark making—embroidery, weaving, printmaking, staining—that destabilise the expressionistic hierarchies established by a dominant culture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe materials explored and preserved throughout his practice also convey Katki's ongoing engagements with storied narratives, using biomythographic threads that entwine the historic and the personal through poetic means. These gestures suggest a blurring of metaphysical dualities, while also surveying the nature of (our) relationships between sites and embodiments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eGroup Exhibitions\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003ca
