Through her online campaign, Farah Mulla walked us through her residency experience and projects. Researching and working with ‘Sensory Overlaps’ using sound, music and interactivity, Farah collaborated with key organizations like Divya Sadan, Sethu Centre For Child Development and Family Guidance, and The Owl House - Neurodiverse Skilling Centre Goa that serve people with special or developmental needs.
Farah Mulla is a multimedia artist based in Goa. Her background in science overlaps with her art practice to explore the perception of sound and its effects on human neurology and subjectivity. She explores the way technologies and relationships that arrive from the human body expand into a multisensorial form of haptics today as we begin to navigate the world through a virtual form of existence and pine for responses from machines and algorithms, as much as we do (or perhaps even less) for human warmth.
