OHMA EXHIBITS: a collection of interactive oral history encounters

Reframing Archives - Individuals & Imaginative Inventories

By Dharini Chand

Ever thought of your own archive? All of us create records - our senses and brain are our recorders and we are an archive of them. From these records, we tend to curate a version of ourselves that we share with the world. In carefully rehearsing and repeating this self, how can the rest of us get shared? This project attempts to experiment with archiving and oral history by intersecting them and invites you to do the same. Pause, reflect and hit play. Maybe you’ll be surprised by what you have to say?

What Is In Your Archive?


Engage with the concept of archiving and visit one…your own! Discover how oral history and archives intersect to create a space that is uniquely you. Reflect on some prompts, see what others have to say, and share your own thoughts as and when you want. This is a creative space to explore beyond the norm. No prior archival experience or knowledge required.
