ABOUT THIS PROGRAM

The artist will present and talk about his artistic practices concerning communal experiences, civic and institutional spaces and contested terrains involving human interactions.

Often times, as a globe-trotter, the constant traveling and adapting to different languages and customs, requires the artist to negotiate between cultures and striking up interactions etc. It is the potential cross-cultural journeys that allow the nomadic artist to create a ‘living process’ to unfold between art and life; exist in between spaces of dialogue between artist and viewer and between everyday relationships and chance. More significantly, championing a meeting point of ideas and information. A firm belief he espouses in his exhibitions and projects till today and beyond.
