Photo artist Kabeer Ramesh offers yet another solo exhibition titled ‘Every Picture has a story...’, the previous being ‘Frozen in Time’, which was held at the prestigious Jehangir Art Gallery, Mumbai. ‘Every Picture has a story...’, exhibited at the ‘Nitya Artists Centre’, Prabhadevi, from 1st May, 2024 onwards, grapples with, as the title suggests, human endeavours/stories in diverse and vivid contexts; these are photo-stories of promises and perils of being human: the glories and triumphs memorialised in monuments are juxtaposed with toiling workers in busy bazaar streets of Kolkata; the symbols of towering human achievements – the world famous the Taj Mahal and London Bridge - co-habit with the unease of forlorn ruins of the dilapidated and discarded. Interestingly, the idea of loners is presented in creatively imagined forms – the ‘lone stone’ of Shillong relentlessly standing up to vagaries of waters, and the unending wait of birds in summer of Rajasthan.
The trees presented in Kabeer Ramesh’s work too depict the diverse meaning universe: the erratic desires of the colonising human, and the falling humanity supported by dried branches of the uprooted. The exhibition also offers noteworthy studies in perspective - the broad-ways and the marvel of the Howrah bridge - what appears as meeting may be illusive, and what is near maybe far. The monuments in Kabeer’s work present an enigma: the famous Notre Dame cathedral in Paris lost its glorious treasures to the leaps of fire; so is the photograph of statue outside the Buckingham Palace, glorious yet stoic.
Kabeer Ramesh’s photographic imagery thus represents the indomitable human spirit, and also cautions against the unreasonable, erratic human desire to colonize. Importantly his works show that all human boundaries, all boundaries, are illusive, porous and imaginary. One could easily cross over the meaning universe and find multiple meanings through acts and ways of seeing and looking, in varied times and spaces.

paint, brush and canvas insteade embrace an eclectic fusion of materials,
techniques, concepts, and themes.It's not just an art exhibition but a memory

itself, its environment.
Ikko Gallery
Artists like Rohit Varekar skillfully depict the
essence of their hometown by intertwining its heritage with personal
narratives. Varekar's use of wood as a medium transcends its physicality,
embodying collective memory and historical consciousness. He elegantly
incorporates elements such as wooden toys and ancestral wealth, turning wood
into a vessel that carries the essence of his region.
In contrast, artists such as
Ashish Thakur focus on the tactile
and olfactory qualities of soil, combined with organic materials, to comment on
rapid urbanization and environmental degradation. Thakur's work highlights the
sensory loss accompanying urban sprawl, urging a reconsideration of humanity's
relationship with the natural environment. By referencing cultural symbols like
the Ganpati tapestry, Thakur weaves together personal, environmental, and
cultural narratives in his art.
Smita Kinkale's
creations using polymer sheets serve as critical commentary on contemporary
issues and the loss of natural phenomena. Her work prompts viewers to reflect
on the impact of modern developments on the environment and society.
Sadanand Shirke offers
visual narratives on Mumbai's changing urban landscape, capturing its vibrancy
and frenetic pace through his use of vinyl and bright colors. However, beneath
the surface, his work hints at a superficial, emotionless existence, inviting
contemplation on the city's complexities.
Nilesh Kinkale's artworks
often feature roads, symbolizing Mumbai's ubiquitous infrastructure. He views
these roads not just as physical pathways but as integral parts of daily life,
rich with the remnants of the city's history. Kinkale's paintings offer a
nuanced perspective on urban transformation, exploring its impact on individual
memories and shared cultural heritage.
Artist: Nilesh Kinkale
The way that woodwork
of Riyas Komu engages with
political tales highlights the connections between political ideology, artistic
expression, and personal experience. Komu embodies the function of both witness
and commentator in art, as evidenced by his background and material selection,
which show a strong link to his cultural heritage and a commitment to political
discourse.
Artist: Riyas Komu
The show
'Mediums of Enclosed Departures' is a testament to the enduring power of art to
capture diverse memories and portray individual environments. Through mesmerizing mediums and thought-provoking narratives,
the exhibition invites contemplation on the interplay between memory,
environment, and cultural heritage.

The Chaos Trilogy - III
The three exhibitions that form the Chaos Trilogy open the conversations on the chaotic situation we are embroiled in to examine the various crises that have taken centre stage in the last three decades in India. The first two parts of the exhibition, titled Disorder Under Heaven and Aliens in a Foreign Land were held over 2022–23, and looked at the themes of the growing social chaos since the nineties; and the questions of home and homelessness, respectively.
In this final exhibition, as part of the Chaos Trilogy, we examine the ecological crisis and map various artistic responses to the impending doom. The ongoing environmental crisis originated with modernity and has escalated in the last three decades because of the increased exploitation of natural resources. This problem has also led to the rise of climate refugees, mass displacement and disenfranchisement of citizens, and aggressive destruction of ecologically sensitive areas with the help of newly formed laws.
Kafka's writing inspires the title, and in this context, it does not propose an exit from this situation; instead, it advocates departing from the status quo if we need to imagine an ecologically sensitive future. The mainstream discourses on the ecological crisis and the strategies of resistance are mainly anchored from a Eurocentric perspective. The global south is obscured from these discussions. It is often held responsible for this crisis due to heavy dependence on fossil fuels, large-scale manufacturing units, and archaic waste disposal systems without addressing the exploitative nature of the global capitalistic system. Furthermore, we must understand the limitations of alternatives, such as lifestyle environmentalism, that blame modern consumer culture as the root cause of ecological problems. We need an urgent shift of frames sensitive to the context of the global south to understand the material interests of the global south in saving the environment. How could we harness such an interest to confront the owners of capital who are responsible for this crisis? This exhibition proposes alternative perspectives to look beyond the local, the parochial, and the community to think about planetary solidarity and human emancipation.
