Gallery Twenty One, in collaboration with the Zonta Club of Greater Dhaka, proudly presented “JATRA”, a landmark group art exhibition celebrating the spirit, strength, and creative journey of Bangladeshi women artists on the occasion of International Women’s Day 2015. “JATRA”—meaning journey—symbolized the evolving creative paths of women artists in Bangladesh. The exhibition brought together an inspiring constellation of established and emerging artists whose works reflected diverse experiences of womanhood, identity, resilience, memory, and transformation. Through painting, printmaking, sculpture, and mixed media, the artists collectively expressed personal narratives alongside broader socio-cultural reflections. As a collective platform, “JATRA” not only celebrated artistic excellence but also honored the dynamic contributions of women to the cultural landscape of Bangladesh. The exhibition stood as a testament to creativity as empowerment—marking International Women’s Day with a powerful visual dialogue on equality, dignity, and artistic freedom.
