Inside Show of Strength: Women Artists Reimagine Goa’s Historic Aguad Port and Jail

Over 30 women artists have transformed Goa's historic Aguad Port and Jail complex into a large-scale exhibition titled 'Show of Strength: Contemporary Women Artists at Aguad.' Curated by Samira Sheth, the show features 37 women artists from Goa working across painting, sculpture, textile, photography, installation, and digital media. The exhibition, which opened in March to coincide with Women's History Month, uses the 17th-century heritage site—once a place of control and confinement—as an integral part of the artistic experience, with works exploring themes of feminine power, resilience, memory, and healing.

The art of remembrance – 10 December 2025

In December 2025, a commemorative exhibition reunites twenty artists who first showed together in 2005 in 'Portugal through the Eyes of Artists,' hosted by Dr. Pedro Alexandre Amor de Fonseca Cabral Adão, then Consul General of Portugal in Goa. The original groundbreaking group show, held at his official residence in Altinho, was the largest of its kind in Goa at the time and reshaped the local art landscape. Now, two decades later, the same artists—joined by three emerging talents—present works in diverse media including painting, mixed media, and textile, honoring the late diplomat who championed their early careers.
