A special illustrated talk on the
islands by Pankaj Sekhsaria
27th July (Thursday): 6.30
pm
Chair: Dr Amita Baviskar
Specially re-produced on silk fabric to
create a new visual and aesthetic experience, this exhibition is a story, in
images, of the Andaman & Nicobar Islands and a world of mystery and charm
we know so little about. Washed by a rolling green and blue sea, this fragile
world is rich with startling beauty and magical lyricism. Ancient turtles
nesting on desolate beaches, translucent jellyfish floating in rich tropical waters,
giant rainforest trees holding up the heavens, whistling teals in the soft
light of a reflected moon…turning away is a challenge as we are drawn into this
striking but delicate, gossamer like island worlds
Island Worlds brings together Pankaj
Sekhsaria’s 20 years of work and photography in the Andaman & Nicobar
Islands. The exhibition travels to Delhi after successful shows in 2016 in
Pune, Chennai and Goa.
