India’s artistic landscape is currently experiencing a vibrant and dynamic phase, wherein artists are exploring myriad mediums to express their creative vision. In conversation with three such artists, it became evident that they are actively embracing diversity and significantly enriching India’s ever-evolving art scene.
For her first solo show in India, with Arjun Sawhney, co-founder of the Delhi-based Pristine Contemporary Art Gallery, Belgian artist Saskia Pintelon employed a mixed-media approach, incorporating techniques like drawing, painting, and collage on newspaper. Her exhibition, Reflections: The Mirror and Self, delved into the intricate relationship between self-image and reality, putting a stark contrast between our perception of the world and its true nature.
Describing the art scene in India, Saskia says that she finds it “vibrant, refreshing, and heartwarming”. Her work has centred around themes like faces, body-culture, plastic surgery, and masked faces for many decades.
