Experience Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib: Canvas of a Great Life↗ through ARTCON's immersive 3D virtual tour. Presented at the Nalini Kanta Bhattasali Gallery, Bangladesh National Museum, in 2022, the exhibition showcased Bangladesh's largest scroll painting by noted artist Shahjahan Ahmed Bikash↗. Organised as part of the Birth Centenary celebrations of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman and the Golden Jubilee of Bangladesh's Independence, the exhibition offered visitors an extraordinary visual narrative of the life, leadership, and enduring legacy of the Father of the Nation.
Explore the exhibition through an interactive 360° walkthrough and encounter the monumental 150-foot-long oil painting, created over more than a year between March 2020 and May 2021. The scroll chronicles Bangabandhu's remarkable journey from his childhood and political awakening to the Language Movement, the Liberation War of 1971, the birth of independent Bangladesh, and his lasting influence on the nation's history. Conceived as a continuous visual narrative, the painting combines historical episodes, symbolic imagery, and expressive compositions into one of the most ambitious commemorative artworks ever produced in Bangladesh.
Produced by ARTCON as a documentary archive, the virtual tour preserves the complete exhibition experience and the monumental scale of the artwork, allowing visitors to engage with the scroll in its entirety beyond the physical gallery. Accessible on desktop, mobile, and VR headsets, the experience offers researchers, students, educators, and the wider public lasting access to a landmark exhibition celebrating the life and ideals of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman.
