I'm ready and hyped
plus I'm amped.
Most of my heroes
don't appear on no stamps.
- Chuck D, Fight The Power
Postage stamps are the preserve of the famous or the powerful, and not of the ordinary or the forgotten. This art exhibition subverts that idea. It features some of the men, women, children and even an infant who was killed in broad daylight in Delhi exactly 35 years back. Even going by the lower official figures, on an average one Sikh was brutally murdered in full public view every four minutes in the heart of India's capital over three days of mob violence in November 1984.
The absence of justice where almost all the perpetuators and enablers have never been held to account is a sad reflection of the zero value attached to these lost lives. Hence the value denoted on these stamps. This project is as much a tribute to these victims as to anyone anywhere in the world assaulted, displaced, discriminated or murdered on grounds of religion, race or any other personal attribute.
