Watch a performance by Tamil artist Anushiya Sundaralingam, and get involved in this participatory workshop, based on our current art installation Tappi Odu (Flee) in the Ulster Museum.
Tappi Odu (Flee) explores the collective experiences of Tamil communities and diaspora populations. The installation features images of footprints from countries across the globe.

Tappi Odu (flee) தப்பி ஓடு Installation
Tappi Odu (Flee), is a new art installation by Tamil artist Anushiya Sundaralingam. The installation explores the collective experiences of Tamil communities and diaspora populations. Nearly three million Sri Lankans live abroad, and one in eight have been forced to leave their homeland. Tappi Odu (Flee) is a testament to those who had to flee, reconnecting Tamil people through a visual narrative of movement and survival.
