the body between us

Through stitched, stuffed, and fragmented forms, Bubly Barna reclaims traditionally feminine labor as both metaphor and act of resilience. This exhibit reflects on the emotional and physical transformations of motherhood, revealing the tension between love and exhaustion, identity and sacrifice.

Bubly Barna is a Dhaka-born fine artist whose multimedia practice combines painting, collage, and stitching to explore themes of motherhood, resilience, and the feminine experience. Now pursuing her MFA in the U.S., she continues to remain deeply engaged with Bangladesh’s art scene.
