Art often offers us an opportunity to relook at familiar things through different lens and uncovering new perspectives. It is this idea of looking beyond the ordinary that builds the ground for Looking Again, a group exhibition by Kalakriti Art Gallery at Art Mumbai.
Taking place between 12 to 15 November, the exhibition brings together six artists, the presentation examines how familiar subjects, everyday objects and cultural references acquire new meaning through artistic interpretation. This careful curation of works by emerging contemporary artists Avijit Dutta, Dhruti Mahajan, Debiprasad Bhunia Mayadhara Sahu, R. Giridhara Gowd and Sachin Jaltare.
Moving across painting, sculpture and works on paper, the presentation considers how everyday forms, natural elements, fragments of memory and cultural narratives can be reinterpreted through material, process and perspective. At its heart is an invitation to look more closely at the world around us. Each aspect brings a distinctive visual language and understanding of material, revealing new possibilities within subjects that might otherwise seem familiar.
Through looking again, Kalakriti Art Gallery invites and encourages visitors to pause, observe and reconsider what they might have previously overlooked.
Date: 12 to 15 November
Address: Kalakriti Art Gallery, Booth C52, Mahalaxmi Racecourse, Mumbai
