Ramayana is one of the great epic poems of India that recounts the life and exploits of Rama, Prince of the Ayodhya kingdom and the hero of the epic tale. The rich story has been told and retold through the ages by saints, poets, scholars and common folk. For generations after generations, the poignant story of Ramayana has appealed to the young and old of all communities and religions with its simple but powerful message to mankind of idealism and the triumph of good over evil. The story of Ramayana has transcended its geographical boundaries to become a part of cultures throughout Asia. This epic tale is popular to this day in India as well as the among the Indian Diaspora abroad.
This exhibition explores the story based on the theme of Ramacharitmanas, a 17th century text from India. The seven chapters of the epic will be told through shadow puppets, paintings on paper and cloth, and photographs of ancient monuments representing the epic from South and Southeast Asia.
