CURRENT
REMNANTS IN RETROSPECT
Harshit Bondre, Kisalay Vora, Siddharth Kerkar & Smita Mnadlik
(Monday, June 15 - Sunday, July 12)
An exhibition that brings together a cluster of artists working with the multi-material, taking from memory the intangible thought processes and creative interactions they have experienced and bringing them alive again through their very tangible art. The abstract installations with their varying mediums, textures and colors are uniquely open to all kinds of audience interpretation but carry subtle hints of the lives lived and stories narrated forward. Each artist brings his individual exploration to the forefront: Bondre’s philosophical preoccupation with the interdimensional nature of time and space, Kisalay and his capturing of the Indian cultural landscape through personal festive memories, Kerkar’s constant experimentation with hybrid media that represents his attempt to unlearn and rediscover the contemporary, and Mandlik’s use of the material to forge a visual landscape of her inner emotional world.They are remnants of the creative endeavor coming together to become works of art in retrospect: multi-faceted yet holistic.
