Reena Saini Kallat is an Indian artist who has gained international recognition for works that focus on aspects of global conflicts, injustices, inequalities, and climate catastrophes. In this episode, she talks about her family story of Partition and the legacy of it that remains in her home city of Mumbai, how she expresses the issue of global boundaries and frontiers that cause dissension, how the inter-dependence of species inspires her, how she uses legal documents in her work to represent ideas of responsibility and freedom, how people who have disappeared are another source of influence, and about her current sculpture at Frieze London that features the bird calls of extinct species.
