Curated Conversation with Mita Mahato: Hybrid Poetics in TROPSSAP and Arctic Play Comix artist Mita Mahato will share insight into how place-making inspires her hybrid poetics, with special focus on how collage technique, poetic forms, and color theory inform her new book Arctic Play (published by The 3rd Thing) and its companion activity book TROPSSAP (on exhibition in “Crossing the Line: The Passport Re-Imagined”). Comix artist Mita Mahato assembles her panels and pages with cut and collaged papers. Her work joins fragments of used and discarded materials—old newspapers, obsolete maps, junk mail, packaging scraps—in poetic experiments that dramatize entangled processes of death and renewal, specifically within the context of ecosystemic loss under capitalism. The pages of her poetry comix are deeply textured, layered, woven, and kinetic, echoing and referencing the play of lives that are entangled in various ecosystems. In conversation with BIMA’s Education lead, Jenna d’Anna, Mahato will share insights into how place-making inspires her hybrid poetics, with special focus on how collage technique, poetic forms, and color theory inform her new book Arctic Play (published by The 3rd Thing) and its companion activity book TROPSSAP (on exhibition in “Crossing the Line: The Passport Re-Imagined”). Audience Q & A to follow. Reception and book-signing before the talk at 6pm. Guest name: Mita Mahato Guest bio: Mita Mahato is the author and artist of the books Arctic Play (The 3rd Thing, 2024) and In Between (Pleiades, 2027).
