AAWAAZ
Publication, Writing

Aawaz (meaning noise in Marathi) is an archival publication that gathers South Asian queer and feminine histories through myth, storytelling, and historical narrative. The project merges research and design into a living archive, drawing from South Asian textiles, Sufi miniature paintings, and pre-colonial visual traditions to reclaim queer histories as inherent to South Asian identity. Informed by Gayatri Gopinath’s writing on queer diaspora, the work navigates liminality—existing between cultural belonging and displacement—shaping a diasporic framework that reflects lived experience as well as theory.
