Memory Leaves

Curated by senior art critic Uma Nair the show straddles the idea of abstraction born from the corollary of the infinitude of forms. 

All three artists have international pedagogic journeys and they manifest their learning through a unique sensibility.The third artist Viraag Desai loves having a digital dalliance with the essence of form .His works invite us to open up to a great multiplicity of alternative ideas in sculptural signatures.The works themselves stand alone as hypnotizing, visually pleasing and prompting introspection, but they are activated in a certain context of all art explorations that have come before them, by breaking down binaries. His use of 3D printed resin helps him to fabricate into his work an intricate geometry. His process is scientific because he uses electroplating and oxidation to fabricate forms of ingenious intonations.

Curator Uma Nair states: Memory Leaves is about both metaphors as well as moods of a state of mind during creativity.All three artists have used their art education abroad to define their own journeys. Each one is unique and unpredictable in their offerings. In the sensibility of articulations, we can sense a direct semblance to the lyricism of poetic nuances and fineness of practice as visual artists. In all their compositions we can revisit spatial memories that are translated into different mediums; as a critic I know that for each viewer the experience will be sensorial; because each artist conjures up memories of a not-so-forgotten past into formulations that translate into a visual, contemplative dialogue.We are looking at a visual language that iterates a silence full of ecological echoes.”
