This game night at Sarmaya Arts Foundation is in tandem with our new exhibition Odyssey of the Rupee: From India to the World.
Marking 75 years of the Indian Rupee, Odyssey of the Rupee is Sarmaya’s most ambitious exhibition yet. Curated by Dr Shailendra Bhandare of the Ashmolean Museum, University of Oxford, with Sarmaya Arts Foundation, the showcase spans centuries of currency, from ancient punch-marked coins to the first coin minted in Independent India. The exhibition also explores how the rupee travelled beyond borders, featuring beautiful and rare coins and notes from regions like Mozambique, Java, and Saudi Arabia.
Facilitator Abhishek Lamba is a game designer, writer, performer, and educator. They co-created SHASN:AZADI, a board game about freedom struggles, which went on to become the first board game ever to win a social impact award at Games For Change. They have written, designed, and acted in She Moves Tech, an immersive theater play about gender biases in AI, which has had shows in Delhi and Bangalore. They are also the creator of Artcade Night, a one of its kind event where they gamify art exhibits.
