Lost Waters was inspired by research from an archival project conducted by Dr. Bhavani Raman and Dr. Aditya Ramesh. Their project, ‘Archives and Maps of Water: Environmental Justice and Cartography for a Coastal City, Chennai 1800-present’ used the Tamilnadu State Archives, the British Library, and the Wellcome Trust Collection, amongst other digital archives. It was funded by a British Academy grant.


$15 general admission, $10 students and seniors. Ticket availability will be announced.
