PULSE VOL. I. PULSE VOL. II

Crafted as part of the Museum of Art & Photography, Bengaluru’s youth engagement initiatives, Pulse serves as a platform for young voices; a collaborative and independent space run by young adults for young adults to share their creative work and practice.

Each quarterly volume of Pulse explores a unique theme, offering insights into the rich perspectives of our generation. From thought-provoking and personal written work to captivating illustrations, Pulse celebrates the dynamic spirit of our community.

We would love to have you on board for our next Editorial Panel - keep an eye out for the Panel Application for Pulse Vol. III here.

Meet the Pulse Coordinators:

Anu Shree Murali

Hey everyone :) I am Anu Shree, one of the Public Programmes Coordinators at MAP. I have a Master’s in International Cultural Heritage Management and a mastery over extra-dramatic early-2000s TV dramas. I love stories – whether in the form of history or a really good page-turner!

Jayati Srivastava

Hey there! I'm Jayati, a Public Programmes Coordinator at MAP. I'm all about connecting with young minds and crafting youth engagement programmes. When I'm not busy with that, you'll catch me baking, beachcombing for shells, or getting crafty with crochet—it's my latest obsession!

This first volume, we explored the nuanced, multifaceted and often bittersweet experiences of growing up and navigating the changes that come with early adulthood. Titled "Work in Progress," this volume explores all the different emotions and experiences that shape our journey into adulthood.
Because early adulthood is a constant work-in-progress!
Through a captivating blend of art and storytelling, Pulse Vol. I offers insights into the joys, challenges, uncertainties and adventures of youth. Dive into the heartfelt reflections of our talented contributors as they share their unique perspectives on growing up and self-growth.

Pulse Vol. I was made possible by the generous support of the British Council's Our Shared Cultural Heritage grant.

For the second volume of Pulse, we paid a very warm and special homage to family, friendship, and community. We looked at all the different kinds of emotions “family” brings within us. We looked at the family we were born into, the ones we found and also the ones we lost. Tittled “Family: Found & Otherwise” this volume is a letter to our loved ones – whether they raised us, lived with us or joined us somewhere along the way!

Stay tuned for more exciting updates on Pulse Vol. III—coming soon!
