Dhon (Two) by Pretika Menon Ongoing project (2021 - Present)
In this photographic work titled ‘Dhon’ meaning ‘Two’ in Konkani, Pretika uses her art of image making and story telling to explore the idea of home. In the village of Moira in North Goa, Eugene D’Souza and her family reside in a house that is rich in the warmth of memory & family life. Eugene lives with her twin daughters, Eulanda & Rustica, and her aging mother-in-law Maria. A coming of age story set in a century old house, Pretika weaves a tale that moves between the realms of documentary and the staged image.
She has received the Umrao Singh Sher-Gil grant for photography 2023 for this project.
