The Spaces Between

Chants from the Hollow
Shailee Mehta 9 Jan - 22 Feb 2025 Shailee Mehta’s anthologies of making are informed deeply by the incongruence and unarguable beauty that shape both the body and the land. For her, the mediums she uses perform a balancing—a bridge between idea and iteration. Drawing is quiet meditation—a mode of mark-making that collapses the distance between body and... Read more -
To Kill a Bully with Kindness

Drawing Dreaming
Pallavi Sen 14 Mar - 27 Apr 2024 Pallavi Sen’s paintings are perhaps best characterized as a kind of hard-edge watercolor; the term seems almost oxymoronic, unlikely. She uses watercolor against itself: where, in the watercolor works of our collective imagination, pigment should run, or drop, or flow across its substrate, she has corralled it, disciplined it. Her... Read more -
An Eye Inside
Jayeeta Chatterjee 22 Feb - 23 Mar 2024 An Eye Inside presents Jayeeta Chatterjee’s journey from an interest in interiors and architecture to her documentation of the domestic feminine politics.

Birth of Forgiveness
Rithika Pandey 12 Jan - 25 Feb 2023 Compared to previous bodies of work, Birth of Forgiveness displays colour palettes that have been subdued and compositions that have been scrupulously pared back.

This Is What It's Like To Be Fabulous
Gurjeet Singh 10 Nov - 30 Dec 2022 Aren’t we bigger than beauty? Don’t judge us like you would any other inanimate work of art. We’re not hanging on a wall or trapped by a frame. We’re boundless, we’re free, we’re alive. Made from discarded heaps of fabric and forgotten bits and bobs, but filled with feeling, set... Read more -

But what happens when the fabric is isolated from the clothing, left bare in its elemental... Read more -
Eccentric Structures / Intimate Worlds
Vinita Mungi 10 Mar - 23 Apr 2022 Their surfaces – meticulously glazed and often coated with candy-coloured slips –feature soft curves, folds, and asymmetrical forms that are inspired equally by limitless patterns in nature, socio-political concerns and formal visual enquiry. Mungi renders ideas of fluidity and spontaneity at various scales, with labyrinthine arrangements informed by the bodies... Read more
