Two young artists, A. Balasubramaniam and Manisha Parekh, work within a
deep and firm rootedness to the elements of life. Bala constructs issues about the nature of perception, illusion and reality and while Manisha’s artworks persuade the viewer to acknowledge their internal absolutes. Both artists’ works transcend the materiality of their materials to an understated interface with the teachings of Gandhi, the metaphor of Khadi as a way of life.. These works are deliberate acts of contemplation for the artist and the viewer.
