Artists of the border of Kynkyny are explorers on new terrain

A group exhibition called Liminality is displaying the art of nine artists and includes work in painting, sculpture and mixed media. Meenal Singh, Devika Sundar, S. Ravi Shankar, Naina Maithani, Sandilia Therkeraf, Gurusidappa GE, Venita Chendwnkar, Siddharth Shingade and Janarrathan Ruharamurthi come into the limelight on various forms of creative expression in the line of artists.

According to Vivek Radhakrishnan, the founder-director of Kynkyny, each of the styles of each artist is clearly different. “There is any chance for zero overlap or confusion between the audience because they move from one artist to another, some new but trigger different neurons in the brain. Each artist’s work is executed with his content, stories and interpretations in his specific style.

The theme for this show is beyond the “cures for an exhibition”, as it is the artists with whom gallery has identified and chosen to work together.

“When you work together with a special artist, a different kind of relationship develops,” Vivek says, it includes a lot of space and freedom to use. “As a result, the artist is not afraid to make some unusual efforts, if he has a new idea. The purpose of a close working relationship is not only to promote authenticity, but also to promote creativity. When the artists know that a gallery is their back, they are more open to make unusual efforts.”

Vivek says that the title limit was to be caused by the place that the artists were in themselves – the time of change or a transformative phase.

“When artists are trying new things, they are quite insecure, because they do not know what the results are going to happen. Often, when some of their best work emerges. In that period of searching and experimentation, in that period of search and experimentation, the artist is also stunned by what they have done.”

He said, “There is a sense of enthusiasm and discovery; all this comes when you are at this place of change. When you put yourself in a situation where you allow you to surprise something, you give a way to get something different or new,” he says.

The performance in Kynkyny by 21 August includes the marginality as 35 works of art by nine contemporary artists. Entry free, closed on Sunday.
