It is impossible to remember everything, but there are things in life hard to forget. Besides there are some memories in life, which should not be forgotten. The Liberation War of 1971 is such a kind of memory for Bengali people. With my art project Smaroknama I try to reveal some war memories, which are not always heroic and glorious but also full of sadness, failure, and disappointment.My art project is dedicated to those who fought for national freedom but in personal or social life still suffer from suppression. My project also reminds of those people who did not participate in the war and even did not experience it but are still haunted by the memory of war.
