Screenprinted poster with hand coloring
The piece Taang Arana is a screenprinted poster. It is an extension of an ongoing project, Totewali, that I started with my sister, Inisyah Bergeron, in 2018. With Totewali we make literal representations of Urdu idioms, screenprint them on tote bags, and disseminate them. The idiom, “Taang Arana,” depicted on this poster literally translates to “getting leg tangled,” which means to interfere in another’s business.
