“Scribble on the Wall” and “Woke Up a Dinosaur” Open at Method Kala Ghoda

Two Exhibitions Launch at Method on 28 February 2026

Method, Kala Ghoda will host the opening of two exhibitions — Woke Up a Dinosaur and Scribble on the Wall — on 28 February 2026 from 2 PM onwards at Method, 86, Nagindas Master Road, Kala Ghoda, Fort, Mumbai 400001. Curated by Anica Mann, the shows mark a distinctive moment in Mumbai’s contemporary art calendar.

Launch of LOAM: Art as a Living Creative Space

Together, the exhibitions also mark the launch of LOAM, co-founded by Anica Mann — a new contemporary art store for children and families. LOAM’s founding vision positions childhood as a serious creative space and reimagines art as tactile, imaginative, and open-ended — something to live with rather than merely observe.

Woke Up a Dinosaur: Reclaiming the Wonder of Childhood

In his debut solo exhibition, Mumbai-based artist Vinayak Sarwankar presents Woke Up a Dinosaur, a poetic exploration of memory, movement, and imagination. The exhibition reflects on the creatures and worlds that define childhood — dinosaurs not as relics but as companions of early imagination. Through this lens, Sarwankar seeks to awaken dormant creativity and playfulness in adulthood.

Playground as Metaphor for Growing Up

Sarwankar’s works create dreamlike collisions between prehistoric creatures and the familiar architecture of childhood — slides, see-saws, and monkey bars. Once symbols of instinctive freedom, these playground structures become metaphors for nostalgia and limitation in adult life. The exhibition softens the boundary between imagination and reality, offering adults a path back to wonder and children an accessible entry into contemporary art.

Scribble on the Wall: A Collective Celebration of Play

Running alongside the solo show, Scribble on the Wall is a group exhibition curated by Anica Mann and presented by LOAM. Featuring artists including Amrit Pal Singh, Anitha Reddy, Ashna Malik, Cultrebox, Hansika Mangwani, Harshita Sharma, Liactuallee, Mona Sharma, Pavan Kumar, Priyesh T, Raj Chowdhury, Revant Dasgupta, Sanatan Vatsayan, and Vishaka Jindal, the exhibition foregrounds material exploration and imaginative thinking without simplifying artistic complexity for younger audiences.

Material Intelligence Over Mass Production

The participating artists resist the logic of plastic, mass-produced toys by presenting works shaped by texture, humour, craft, and conceptual depth. From textile-based explorations and new media installations to graphic illustration and sculptural assemblage, the exhibition creates encounters where art becomes something to engage with rather than consume.

Takeaway

With Woke Up a Dinosaur and Scribble on the Wall, Method Kala Ghoda presents an intergenerational dialogue on imagination and artistic freedom. Through LOAM’s launch, the exhibitions reframe childhood as a space of creative seriousness while inviting adults to rediscover the wonder that never truly disappeared.
