Exploring Landscape as Process
The exhibition presents landscapes not as fixed scenes but as evolving conditions shaped by light, atmosphere, and time. The works span forests, water bodies, coastal environments, temple precincts, and urban spaces, reflecting diverse encounters with both natural and built surroundings.
Role of Light and Time
A central thread across the exhibition is the role of light in transforming perception. Whether filtering through foliage or reflecting on water, light alters how each landscape is experienced, suggesting a continuous shift rather than permanence.
Individual Artistic Approaches
Several artists approach landscape through distinct conceptual lenses. Alistan Dias explores lived rhythms of place, while Bhoomika Karbhari focuses on stillness and attentiveness. Pradip Suryawanshi engages with memory, and Rohan Bhavsar examines reflection as a mode of seeing. Suresh Jangid’s work evokes contemplative spaces shaped by time.
Mediums and Techniques
The exhibition includes works in:
- Oil and acrylic painting
- Watercolour
- Pen and ink
- Mixed media
These varied approaches expand how landscapes are constructed and interpreted, offering multiple visual and material perspectives.
