This exhibition explores the tensions, interactions and reactions
between nature and its related yet seemingly unrelated forms. Ink ,textiles,wire
and paper are some of the mediums that helped them navigate through this body
of work.

Aparajita Jain Mahajan  – I have a deep connection to nature and painting. I knew my destination was an art college and graduated from the Rhode Island School of Design in 2003. I am intrigued by the graphic intricacies of how things navigate and function, the webbed aerial view of the earth, the shadow of the sun, minuteness in nature, in fields, in topography – and the interaction between all these particles –  all of which viewed at different speeds in respect to time seem to embody a life of its own to me.
Pooja Aggarwal – I studied at The Shri Ram school and  graduated from College of Art, New Delhi in 2004.
After spending the first few years in the design field I needed to return back to my canvas.
Change is constant, flow is essential. These are the thoughts that I play with or rather they play with me. The current body of work arises from the cyclical flow of life in nature, often times expressed as repetition, interaction and reaction with elements of the fantastic woven into the story.
