BETWEEN THESE LINES: IN THIS SPACE I ROOT AND GROW

Renowned artist Seema Pandey presents – BETWEEN THESE LINES IN THIS SPACE I ROOT AND GROW, solo art exhibition of more than 100 miniature sizes as well as larger artworks at New Delhi from 12 July 2024 to 21 July 2024 (11.00 AM – 8.00 PM)

BETWEEN THESE LINES IN THIS SPACE I ROOT AND GROW promises a visual journey of tranquillity and contemplation, where each artwork speaks about resilience and the human spirit.

“The concept behind this art undertaking reflects the artist’s keen observation and awareness of everything around her—whether during her travels, drives around the city, or her immediate surroundings at her workplace or home, from her experiences or imagination—and traces back in time to a two-year incubation period within a mental womb. Thereafter, the actual execution occupied a two-month hiatus, encompassing an astonishing set of locales, ranging from coffee shops, to observation of weather changes in the outdoors, the home surroundings, all of which created a trail of linkages that led back to the studio where this collective portfolio of mind images were thereafter retrofitted, so to speak, into artistic adaptations. The final outcome, on view at this showing, is thus spliced with techniques, such as angles of placement, autobiographical inputs, the glories of inclemency as observed in weather fluctuations, or even the lingering memory of a whiff of conversation! Hence the visual cohesion before viewers of these clinging memories have been collated around an art-narrated offering by the artist with herself, Seema’s fascination for experimentation with her material picks, and the exploitation of the tremendous potential of geometrical machinations,” says the curator of the show.

“The exhibition is an eye opener not because it makes its ideations loud and clear, but because it subsumes the charm of black and white into a new angle of contrasts. Whether they are born of her keen observation of the outdoors, or contextualized with the workings of her inner vibrations, the final product is a visual delight of soul-searching tranquility,” the curator explains the artist’s carefully curated art project that has culminated two years of meticulous artistry.
