Editor: This is Serena Chopra's "Choekyi’s House #2, Majnu Ka Tilla Diaries (13)." It feels very intimate, like a glimpse into a private space. What story do you think it's telling? Curator: It speaks to the Tibetan refugee experience in Majnu Ka Tilla, Delhi. The image is heavy with the weight of displacement and resilience. Consider the "Never Give Up" banner alongside the worn door. What does that juxtaposition say about hope and hardship? Editor: It's interesting how something so simple can carry so much history. Curator: Precisely. Chopra invites us to reflect on the politics embedded in everyday spaces and the human spirit enduring through adversity. Does knowing this change your initial perception? Editor: Absolutely. I see a narrative of perseverance in the face of difficulty now. Thanks!
