Giving Shape to the Inner World | Bangalore International Centre, Bengaluru

Giving Shape to the Inner World is an interactive discussion and creative session exploring how feelings and personal experiences can be expressed through characters, images and letters. Presented in association with Bangalore International Centre, stOriculture and MRM, the event brings together creators who give feelings a form, based on the book Monsters of My Mind.

The session explores how creativity can help people understand and express their inner worlds beyond words. Members of the panel will read scenes from Monsters of My Mind, followed by conversations about how comics, humour and absurdity can make difficult experiences easier to explore. The programme moves between discussion and hands-on creative activities, inviting participants to imagine and represent their own inner monsters.

The event features illustrator Tanya Sudheer, animation filmmaker Vivekananda Roy Ghatak and illustrator Riya Nagendra as speakers. Abhik Bhattacharji, Storyteller and Social Impact Strategist, will moderate the session. It takes place on Sunday, 15 November, from 6:30 PM to 8:00 PM. Admission is free and open to all, with RSVP required through the Bangalore International Centre website.
