The Prayer Rug series are works created by Francotte during her time spent with the Rohingya Refugees. An artist who chooses to engage with communities unfamiliar to her to enhance her practice, this experience in Bangladesh resulted in an exhibition that was presented both at the Bangladesh National Museum and later at Saskia Fernando Gallery in Colombo titled 'Being The Other'. The Prayer Rugs were created around a similar time and were inspired by the visual of refugees praying on their mats in the camps and the themes of religion, ethnicity and cast.
