Dupatta As Calendar

The calendar was a covenant between the land and those who worked it, a way of knowing when to sow and when to reap. In neoliberal society, the calendar is a ledger of debt, ceaseless growth we are forced to subscribe to. This calendar, printed with cyanotype, takes the form of a dupatta— a traditional South Asian shawl: it does not track productivity, it does not count down, it drags. Time was never something to be spent, but something to be worn, to be carried, to be lived.
