The whimsical yet colorful illustrations of Dhakayeah reminds us of a city few have experienced, but most have only dreamed of. Blending the old and new, Dhakayeah is a visual poetry of a booming city with a nostalgia for its past.

Dhakayeah's content is largely inspired by the character of Dhaka city as a whole. Magic Realism, Escapism, Romance are few of the themes that DhakaYeah! loves to explore and these are quite recurring in its works. Other than the world of contemporary art and illustration, performing arts is a great source of inspiration for DhakaYeah – be it a great movie, play, or a song.

How we started

Deep attachment and affection towards Dhaka city inspired DhakaYeah to come into existence five years ago. 

The contents or the theme definitely has its roots embedded in deep love and emotions for Dhaka and its ever-changing culture. Dhaka has developed a very unique space for itself in the minds of its residents but sadly the city doesn’t feel very represented or documented at least on a global scale as much as it deserves. DhakaYeah really wants to represent the city and its stories to the world and the urge to showcase it to the world acts as a huge inspiration.

Who we work with

DhakaYeah chooses to present itself as an anonymous entity which helps to bring out the essence of Dhaka in an undistorted manner, ensuring to bring out the city and its people minus the shadow of a personality as it is not attached to a certain gender, group, or an individual.
