Description

Join Oklahoma Contemporary for the opening of HOME1947: Sharmeen Obaid Chinoy! This immersive exhibition explores the lives and stories of the millions displaced in 1947 during the creation of two new independent nation-states, India and Pakistan, through a series of short films, virtual reality, photographs, sound installations and more — recreating the long-lost sights, sounds and smells of what millions once called home. Enjoy light bites, a cash bar and a discussion of the installation.
