About Me

Photo of Ara Chawdhury, California-based Filmmaker

I want to create provocative art that challenges the world being presented to my children and the rest of the global southern majority. I am interested in deconstructing how history shapes culture, and reconstructing a sensibility from the debris of cultural erasure. My work has been described as “Charming”, “Rich”, “Irreverent”.
