SUMMARY:Sahej Rahal | Ancestors | Jehangir Nicholson Art Foundation\, CSMVS
DESCRIPTION:We are delighted to announce the opening of Sahej Rahal’s solo exhibition\, Ancestors (पू र्व ज) curated by Puja Vaish on occasion of the CSMVS Museum’s centenary at the Jehangir Nicholson Gallery. \nThe exhibition brings together an extensive body of Rahal’s work that resonates with the underpinnings of the Museum in telling stories of civilisations. \nAncestors stages sculptural installations\, drawings\, paintings\, writings\, performance and an AI programme as an archaeolgical tomb-site of the future. Visitors enter a make-believe crypt with imagined relics of a posthuman civilisation. \nUsing archaeology as a metaphor\, the Museum becomes a space to interrogate narratives that shape the world\, its inhabitants and belief systems through a consideration of the human\, ecological and digital imprints that are left behind. \nThis project was made possible by the support of The Sher-Gil Sundaram Arts Foundation (SSAF) Installation Art Grant 2019.

SUMMARY:Group Show | Lost In Space
DESCRIPTION:Chatterjee & Lal is pleased to announce the opening of a new exhibition\, Lost In Space\, presenting recent work by Minam Apang\, Sahej Rahal\, Gagan Singh and Nityan Unnikrishnan. \nThe exhibits are mostly small format paper works\, portraying the animate and inanimate inhabitants of strange worlds. Creatures creep and crawl\, bounce and bob; landscapes of jungle vines and crash sites\, cities set in deep space. Stylistically\, the works draw often from the genres of the comic book and the graphic novel\, black humour abounds in their subject matter. Probe a little deeper and we can find metaphors to the contemporary moment; to a world\, this world\, lost in space.
