Exhibition of fine prints at Kanoria

An exhibition of prints was inaugurated at the Contemporary Art Gallery of the Kanona centre on June 25. The artists currently working there are Anila Vadgania and Aurogeeta Das.

Unlike painting, printmaking involves many foreign elements like chemicals. The uses of various techniques contribute to make the printing perfect.

‘Straight walk’ is one of Vadgania’s prints, which exemplifies line construction by showing a tree with its character. This grey print discloses Vadgama’s keen perception of growth in all directions by showing the tree with its peculiar characteristics of growth in space. Apart from this, her other works are also created in layers of colours, with butter paper and cloth.

Aurgeeta Das’ work shows the artist’s inner expressions rather than the technicalities of printmaking. In Aurogeeta’s subjects and titles one can see the struggle of creation, in which process music comes to her aid. This importance of music can be felt through her repeated use of string instruments.
