“While curating Echoes of the Earth, I sought to bring together a diverse group of artists, each with their unique perspective, mediums and experience. The intricate and timeless conversation between humanity and nature has been ignited in ‘ECHOES OF THE EARTH’ as this conversation given the change in weather, untimely seasonal variations and catastrophes has become more important than ever. The selection of artists aligns with B-CAF’s ongoing commitment to showcasing independent artists and you will find some unique, experimental and fresh takes”, said Ms Reena Dewan, Art Curator and Founder Director of Bridging Culture and Arts Foundation(B-CAF).
Nature, the ultimate force and inspiration of creative arts, has long driven artists to capture its essence, contemplate its secrets and reflect on its profound influence on human life. This exhibition celebrates the personal connection between nature and all living beings, as seen through the distinct lenses of these artists. Through the unique perspectives of five remarkable artists, this exhibition weaves a rich tapestry of experiences, honouring nature’s enduring beauty while examining our modern relationship with the natural world.
‘Echoes Of The Earth’ brings together the profound works of five phenomenal artists – Pradosh Paul, Saumen Khamrui, Chandan Debnath, Ratna Bardhan and Shubhankar Chakraborty.
