'I Am Having a Bad Dream Amma' is a photo installation by Aparna Ashok from her debut solo exhibition, 'Unseen Realities.' Through captivating images, Aparna explores the concept of 'otherness' experienced during her time in the UK. Adorned in fishnets and a satin camisole, her face concealed behind a mask, the series portrays the struggle of fitting in while retaining one's identity. It prompts viewers to ponder the complexities of cultural adaptation and the quest for authenticity in a globalized world.
