Hekh is a multifaceted cultural interface based in Karnal, India, bringing together young artists, researchers, and thinkers to map, inject and conjure what it means to be a cultural practitioner in the contemporary now. Finding its origins in a Punjabi folk singing technique with constant vibrato-like modulation, Hekh generates an ‘undying call’; that amplifies, resonates, reverberates, echoes, and transmutes, interfering and informing frequencies past, present and future to make our paradigms apparent and generate encounters for transformation.
