Art Alive Gallery brings Moments and Transformation: Finding Life in Materiality, a group show comprising of seven artists from Chennai and Puducherry. The show aims to investigate different materials that artists will engage with to explore their subjectivity and expressions. The notion of ‘moments’ and ‘transformation’ will play out in the seminal aspect of the change and metamorphosis that material will bring in the hands of the artists at the opportune moment to emerge as a work of art.It is at the intersection of time, space and materials when metamorphosis happens, which in transiting leads to infusing new life and character in the materials to find answers in “Life in Materiality”.
The artists we are presenting are Kirti Chandak, Manjula Selvam, Padmanaban T., and Gubendhiran K. from Puducherry and Lakshmi Srinath, Augustine Thilak and S. Potrarasan from Chennai who will showcase their works of art through engagements with different materials, mediums, and technique at a physical level as well as metaphorically, artists can bring about momentous transformation, in which the source of reference translates to expressive statements as desired.
