09/05/2024


Ms. Israt Taslim, a Lecturer in the Department of English and Modern Language at Independent University, Bangladesh (IUB), has demonstrated her research expertise on the international stage. She presented a paper, "Water Carries Memory: A Mirror to Human Injustice Against the Minority," at the 4th Kyoto Conference on Arts, Media & Culture (KAMC2023) held in Kyoto, Japan.

KAMC2023, in partnership with the IAFOR Research Centre at the Osaka School of International Public Policy (OSIPP), Osaka University, Japan, convened from October 10th to 13th, 2023. This conference facilitated the exchange of insights among global interdisciplinary researchers, fostering the growth of intercultural research networks and partnerships.

Ms. Taslim's paper delved into the functionality of water in this Anthropocene era, as depicted in the artworks of Bangladeshi artists Shamsul Alom Helal and Marzia Farhana. Her research showcased how water remembers and serves as a mirror reflecting the brutality against nature and the injustices inflicted upon minority communities. Ms. Taslim's analysis explored themes of human binary thinking, emphasizing the interconnectedness of all living beings, and advocating for a world without boundaries.

The Kyoto Conference on Arts, Media & Culture (KAMC2023) has become a significant platform for scholars, researchers, and academics to engage in meaningful discussions and share their diverse perspectives on the arts, media, and culture. Ms. Taslim's participation in this prestigious event reflects the growing influence of Bangladeshi academics on the global stage and reinforces IUB's commitment to academic excellence.
