Glimpses of ‘Sediments of Becoming: Fossilised Present, Summoned Pasts’

For cultural diplomacy at a moment of acute global fracture, the exhibition is a reminder of all that endures - that cultures travel beyond the lines drawn across maps, and that it is in resisting their erasure that art bears witness. To present this at the Hermitage, among the oldest and most defining cultural institutions of the modern world, a site through which strata of Indian heritage have passed via cultural diplomacy, colonial exchanges or dynastic spoils, is to invite an encounter of an entirely different order.
Not display. Not artifact. But contemporary voice.

Maya Krishna Rao was one of the first performers of the 1990’s to pioneer solo-devised performance incorporating music, live camera, dance and theatre. Working simultaneously as director, playwright, and performer, she employs an improvisational approach where the video camera becomes her co-creator.
She has worked across a wide range of genres, gaining recognition for her multimedia performances, comedy, agitprop, and applied theatre. Her practice intersects theatre, activism and performance art.
She has been performing for over 3 decades in different capacities, from her days in the UK, then coming back to India, where her roots in Malayali Theatre first shaped her practice.
She is a recipient of the Sangeet Natak Akademi Award (2010), which she returned five years later citing the rising intolerance in India.

The bananas in their three stages, go from their perfect pitch of youthful ripeness to rugged wear and tear, and lastly to the shriveled remains of a forlorn stalk, much like human life. These banana painting, conjure new and disturbing revisions of everyday materials and experience, transforming representative image into evocative metaphoric ones.

“Nearly a quarter century ago on a serendipitous visit to Ramanashram, I chanced upon a photograph of the sage and was instantly captivated .The luminous eyes in the photograph pierced into me, intimate yet with an intensity. . . then an indescribable lightness and happiness I have been painting this image ever since hoping perhaps to share with others this quietness and depth of peace”

“My work largely borrows from the urban landscape - both man-made and natural/organic.
The subtle geometries and formal arrangements that quietly hold the physical world together fascinate me. Often it is something as mundane as a towering scaffolding clinging to a structure or something as ordinary as an oddly stretched net against snow, or a fresh unfurling in the morning sun. It is within these fleeting configurations that the work begins.” - Niyeti Chadha

Niyeti Chadha’s set of works feature Balsa wood and Rapidograph pen on Paper. Thin strips of wood are sliced and built into a veil like structure. Layers of balsa are interlaced into the drawing, creating linear yet three dimensional landscapes. These works draw references from urban situations, such as abandoned lived spaces that stand shielded with a tarp, tottering piles of ripped homes that lay on a vacant plot or towering scaffoldings holding on to the structures until they are instructed to reveal..

“Text as a word or a phrase has been appearing sparingly in Roy’s works for the last few years, signifying through its fragile manifestation, a silent hysteria. In some, words are camouflaged by lines drawn over, partly popping out unexpectedly on the entire surface. Roy is not hoping to substitute the painted phenomena through the word, but instead uses it to amplify the force of the inexplicable and the abstract. ‘Suspicion’, ‘Threat’, ‘Conspiracy’, ‘Keep Still’, ‘Tense’, words woven into the painting seem to be recurrent, conflicting ideas of discomfort and comfort that take on psychological dimensions. “

“I don’t like self-imposed limits. Essentially, I see myself as an image-maker; I enjoy the physicality of a painting, the touch of a loaded brush on a surface. In the business of image-making your intuitions are honed over time. A cityscape might have been inspired by a particular view or memory but then it goes beyond that initial impulse, as an abstraction. Objects which are deliberately arranged with a purpose and presented for delectation, represent the theatrics in a show window or display. There are conscious choices and selections involved, and these invisible efforts make the scene what it is.”
Indrapramit Roy
