This show is about tigers—but not really.
Rather, it is about ways of looking: at tigers, at animals, at land and nature. Specifically it’s about how looking is constructed through the colonial gaze, and how the figure of the tiger refuses this unequal power afforded by the gaze.
Set in a black and white bungalow, The Eye and The Tiger invited reflection on how colonial gaze has shaped our relationship to land and nature, and how tigers have haunted us at every step.
