SIMRRAN GILL
ARTIST EXTRAORDINAIRE

You recently showcased India’s largest solo exhibition, Infinite Light, across four cities. What is the exhibit all about?

Infinite Light is the largest solo exhibition by any Indian artist ever and was showcased over five months at four galleries– Art Alive in Delhi, Art Musings in Mumbai, CIMA Gallery in Kolkata, and Gallery Sumukha in Bengaluru. During the last 32 years of my artistic journey, I’ve worked with water colours, ceramics, and film, and on drawings, paintings, sculptures, and installations. Infinite Light showcases nearly 450 artworks of mine to the public.

Varanasi makes an appearance in many of your artworks. What’s the reason behind this?
