Colour Combination

The exhibition at Shridharini Art Gallery, Triveni Complex, Tansen Marg, is on till April 27.

In the lawn outside Shridharini Art Gallery, an installation in wood with shirts on hangers commemorates the heroes of terrorist attacks world over. Titled Resilience, the artist Indira P Ghosh says, “Now we are more willing to bounce back, whether it is 9/11 or 26/11. I remember few hours after the bomb blast in Sarojini Market the clothes for sale were hanging up again. It’s good that we don’t just keep brooding.”

The 41-year-old MS University of Baroda alumna is showing her work with three other contemporary artists in the exhibition titled “Traces”.

With no common thread binding the exhibition, each artist has explored his/her own inclinations. If Abhijit Kumar Pathak’s abstract canvases in mixed media dwell on the sounds of nature, Sidharth M Pansari notes that through his acrylic on canvas, he “proliferates though a distilled reconciliation of allegorical opposites of form and colour, of geometry and space, of distance and dimension”. Triveni Prasad Tiwari, on the other hand, draws inspiration from the stark realities of life. The materials range from ceramics and bronze, to sprouted seeds and chickpeas. “I belong to a village and try to keep my work close to nature and organic. They reflect on the need for being rooted in urban spaces,” says Delhi-based Tiwari.
