What it's all about

Filmmaker Sumantra Ghosal delivers the Chidananda Dasgupta Memorial Lecture, exploring a fundamental question: when we look at art, what are we actually seeing? Drawing on his work across film, music, poetry, dance and visual art, Ghosal reflects on how personal experience, memory and perspective influence our understanding of an artwork.
