Sarker Protick
Bangladeshi, b. 1986
Based in Dhaka, Bangladesh
Sarker Protick is interested in subjects of temporality, the materiality of time, and the metaphysical prospects of Light and Space. Working with photography, video, and sound, Protick has formed a series of works that are built on long-term surveys rooted in Bangladesh, while simultaneously exploring ideas that blur the notion of geopolitical boundaries. He is the recipient of Joop Swart Masterclass, Light Work Residency, Magnum Foundation Fund, World Press Photo Award among many others. He has exhibited in museums, galleries, and festivals including Yokohama Triennale, Hamburg Triennale, Paris Photo, Dhaka Art Summit, 4A Center of Contemporary Asian Art, Kunst Haus Wien, Noor der licht, Singapore Art Week, Art Dubai, and more. He is a faculty member of Pathshala South Asian Media Institute and Co-curator at Chobi Mela International Festival of Photography
