The Public Curates: Bashir Lalani

The Public Curates series consists of short videos recorded by Museum visitors, patrons, and volunteers. The videos present their personal reflections on an object they have chosen from our Collection.

In the first instalment of the series, Bashir Lalani, a longtime Museum volunteer, shares his story about the journey that his family took to Canada and how this chestnut leaf with calligraphic composition from the collection of the Aga Khan Museum reminds him of that time.
