Mangoes & Meaning | Museum of Goa, India

Uriel Orlow is presenting Mangoes of Goan Origin (An Archive) as part of the group show Mangoes and Meaning: Histories, Ecologies and Cultural Imagination at Museum of Goa.

Expect to encounter the mango in ways you may not have before. After all, this isn’t just any fruit-it’s aam, the common thread that connects us all. This exhibition brings together personal, cultural, ecological, and communal perspectives, reflecting on what it means to grow a mango, to sit in the shade of its tree, to share it with neighbours, and to spend long summers in its presence. The exhibition explores how this fruit becomes a symbol of place, of season, and of belonging.
