Trimukhi platform is founded in Kolkata by Sukla Bar (Indian, social worker) and Jean-Frédéric Chevallier (French, stage director and philosopher). It arises from the desire to create in West Bengal, India, a platform from where to act in three different directions: 1) social work, 2) artistic creations, 3) theoretical research. The particularity of this desire is to make these three fields worked together –maintaining active the triangular links between them and constantly putting in question the meaning as well as the function of each one of them.

In the moment, Trimukhi platform desires to work mostly with women and girls (social angle), in performing and visual arts (arts angle) and in philosophy and sociology research (academic angle). Probably these specifications will take a different shape as the time passes. During the coming year, all the projects are focussing on the construction of a concrete and real platform: the Borotalpada Cultural Center. How to build and how to give life to this new-coming space?
