PAPER TONGUES 


This is a story about five artists sharing their experience of all things they want to change in the society but are unable to do so. Though they say Change is constant, yet it seems to be much difficult to attain. This practice is nothing but the memoirs of their mind. They are speaking with visuals, for the society to hear with their eyes. The speech is so subtle and sensitive that it might take longer for the society to understand. The tangible nature of medium used by artist might perish or elapse but the content will follow its own destiny.  

So here we bring to you a little persuasion on an effort for this voicing act.

Why Paper Tongues?

As they say - The wisdom was spoken and then written down.

So here artist transmits his vision on the paper, though elusive in nature but containing the truth. It can be deciphered episode by episode.


The discourse is held around the contribution made to the society. We as revolutionary dreamers have strong control over an exchange for the ideas. From scientists to geologists we are all responsible for the uplifting or decline of our society.


Like with Dash’s work, he is sharing views on our political figures, and the garden of statues they are erecting. However, they have promised to uplift our cities and states, nonetheless maximum time goes in self-glorification. 


Here, Kashi is discussing in his Gandhi Series, principles and guideline Gandhi has left behind. He is trying to preserve the ideas and the philosophy of Gandhi


Sebastian’s works are narrating about a beautiful chaos created under the banner of growth.


Biswas made an installation suggesting how we are furthering the chaos by decanting it in a newer fashion. 


Sunil Padwal’s work is a culmination of those layers of expressions intended to give the illusion of unspoken reflections.


Hence this collective is narrating in retrospection to the current world image.
