Exhibition of photographic works focusing on family connections opens at Duff House in Banff

Nalini, an exhibition of photographic works by artist Arpita Shah, has opened at Duff House in Banff.

This new exhibition is presented in partnership with Glasgow-based Street Level Photoworks.

Nalini, which opened to the public on Friday, explores the connected histories of Arpita Shah, her mother and her grandmother, spanning India, East Africa and the UK.

The exhibition explores the artist’s past through her maternal lineage and how migration, distance and loss have shaped their lives, featuring discoveries of old forgotten family photographs, and shared and individual memories of objects, places, and family stories.

Nalini will be displayed at the Long Gallery at Duff House on selected dates from Friday, April 12 to Sunday, July 14.

Entry to the exhibition is included in admission to Duff House.
