The myth, memory, meaning of Artisra takes the audience beyond the canvas

Myth, Smriti, Earth displays the works of four contemporary female artists – Ashu Gupta, Rakhi Shenoy, Smruthi Gargi Esswer, and Sukanya Garg. Like the artists themselves, each work on the display enhances a different style of creative expression.

The media employed by these artists involves the use of thread, gold leaf and paper -the use of acrylic, which works to bid the audience for deep views in each piece.

Although this may seem unusual, Delhi -based artist Sukanya Garg says that the inspiration for her work with gold leaf stems by himself. “I had an auto immune position for a long time and once I was ill, I started pulling the cells.

It was almost a decade ago and in the years of discovering alternative practices to reduce its position, a folk remedy method practiced by some communities in Sukanya, Amazon came beyond the kebo, including cauterisation for specific points of the body in an attempt to purify the toxins.

His current work on performance in Artisra reminds of this method – prepared on paper and using gold pen and gold leaf, a medium that he began to use about three years ago. The exhibition shows cases around 19 pieces, which were a former economist, who had no risk to the art field before his illness.

The Bangalore-based Smriti Gargi Eyeover is well known for its series, titled Sister-Goddess on the deity, and although myth, works on performance in memory, which means that they revolve around mythology, artists say that they are a part of her new series. The Center is everywhere.

“These are based on the concept of how geometric shapes are essentially converted into a center,” says memory. “In the universe, there is no center for the universe – everything is central for itself. Similarly, in mythology, there is no central God, but many heroes, there are many points of reference. It is not monotonist, and I wanted to bring mythology hidden from Indian epics.”

Although it has worked with various media in the past, especially graphic art, Smiti has used acrylic on canvas, which are present with geometric shapes and lines with geometric organisms and locations.
