With a focus on two works by artist Karishma D’Souza, the authors meditate on connections between Indian and Atlantic Oceanic worlds, especially as they are informed by Lusophonic histories. The linkages thus drawn include ecological considerations, the passage of enslaved peoples, trade dealings, and cultural ties. In honing in on D’Souza’s art and practice, this chapter seeks to understand how aesthetics are influenced by placemaking while also taking cognizance of the cultural multiplicities created through oceanic connections.
