A place for everything and everything in its place. In this way the world understands. But art means, and often, explain the boundaries. This disobedience is that this art gives its calm strength to the exhibition. Instead of politely hanging on the white walls, work at a living place working in covalent – durable, vegetarian clothing, inhabited between the rack of heels, and are displayed with straw hats and jute bags at Clothburg’s house on Harrington Road.
Store and vegetarian cafes, with their commitment to stability and arbitrary design, have a background and more co-aurator low, allowing artifacts to engage with everyday life. “Art shows are always within galleries or spaces for art. Therefore, people who walk are literate, and they are coming only because they are interested in art. So how do you make art accessible to the public?” The curator asks Kartikeyan Jeeta.

In order to bring art in such a blank place which is not in the galleries, it was the idea that this exhibition fuel. The five -parting artists, Aishwaryayan K, Soraja KS, Dimple Shah, Anitha TK and Mibin, explain the central theme of co -operative in their unique ways.
Chennai -based visual artist KS Soraja hung inch from the performance of artifacts, handbags, and shoes of artifacts depicting women’s physical and mental experiences and emotions. The artifacts face the weight of physical and emotional experience tied to femininity, using hair as a symbol.
Meanwhile, Dimple Shah presents three different series. The fungus head, exploding with psychidelic color, is a metaphor for its transfer psychological states. Conversely, contemplation with a dead tree turns inwards, and focuses on decay, and time passes. His third series, quicks, takes more important vowels using absurd, imagined areas to comment on ecological destruction and misuse of natural resources.

“In a comprehensive context, art is very important for the world because it helps us understand those who are different from us. There is no normal thread among these artists. But it is the point itself. To show that we can separate, and are still together,” Jeeta says.
Aishwian’s Hasta series caught the gestures of the hand in gauche and arithmetic ink on elephant dung paper. Each gesture drawn by memory, rituals, or everyday experience invites the viewer to stop and often connect with the unseen moments. They are drenched in a childhood apathy that is no longer present.
There is something chaotic about turning a corner in a store and finding a painted gesture. The covalent does not demand attention – it does a slightly different way, to look, see you, reflect, and perhaps the space, and to see each other.
Currentizer is being seen in the house of Clothberg, Harrington Road, Chennai by 13 June.
