Carrying Home on Our Backs begins where memory refuses to stand still. Home here is not a noun but a tide, a verb in constant motion.Nad-e-Ali (@nadealy) gathers perishable relics into a Memory Museum: an ECG strip still beating faintly, a father’s watch ticking in another time…. fragile proofs that grief survives its owner. Rajat Dey’s (@gonddarr) Scissors and Glue cuts and joins Calcutta walls with papers that once crossed from East Pakistan, his collages echoing the humble repairs that hold a household together, even as memory slips through the seams. Tanya Traboulsi’s (@tanya_traboulsi ) Beirut, Recurring Dream sees balconies as double-edged thresholds, holding tenderness and damage at once — uprisings, explosions, the long unravelling of a city pressed into every wall. Julia Laird’s (@julia__laird ) Home is a map made by walking, where weather itself records the return path across Scottish moors. With Marie, Nishant Saldanha and Roshan Roymon attend to a Goan-Catholic household where drawings, photographs and notes whisper of labour, of caste, of care…. making legible what is often erased, without consuming it.Together, these fragments journey from Stranger House Gallery @strangershousegallery in Bombay to Athens, extending the long-distance archive of Postcards from Home @postcardsfromhomenet . Inside the old tobacco factory, the works follow the city’s own handwriting of migration and exile: reliquaries beside taped seams, way-finding beside coastlines, drawings beside domestic ledgers.At Platforms Project @platformsproject the bundle is opened like a family album left on a kitchen table…. to be read slowly, aloud, porous to interruption. Athens, with its courtyards that speak in many tongues, is not a backdrop but a co-author. Here, home behaves like breath itself: packed, unfolded, carried onward, always remade

Home is made up of flavors and rituals, where eating means more than just having a meal. When we talk about food, we talk about stories, memories, and experiences that cross places and generations. Food nourishes memory, identity, and bonds that shape the story of who we are.


The works gathered here look at food as a ritual that keeps history and identity alive, reimagined, and shared. From the communal Ramadan table in Cairo to intimate family recipes in Greece, from archives of migration to mythic reinterpretations of the Lotus Eaters, each project reveals how food shapes our individual and collective memory.
Here, “home” is not a fixed wall but a practice of sharing, continuously reimagined with every meal, every story, every bite.
