“Everything I do, in some uncanny way, finds an inextricable link to my roots,” says art curator and food writer Tanya Abraham, who was born and raised in Fort Kochi, the ancient part of Kochi city in Kerala.
Indeed all her projects are related to this historical part of the city: as the curator of Kashi Art Gallery in Fort Kochi, she has worked on numerous art projects developing community art. She is also the founder of the Kashi Art Residency to promote art education, and The Art Outreach Society (TAOS), a non-profit in Kochi that works with prisoners and underprivileged children using art as a tool.
