A Gathering brings together works summoned by a group of artists, akin to a group of leaves taken together, one inside another, like in binding a book.

Preetha Kannan's work is a relationship of the vibrations of colour. No isolated melody is heard. The whole is a symphony of the vital and ever changing natural life, buzzing, pulsating, almost to the point of enchantment. Into this enchanted world steps Manish Chavda with delicacy and deftness of his brush strokes, savouring the process of rendering a plant, a wild landscape or just some flora; an intuitive communion with the natural world. Viewing his work is akin to that of listening to music or reading a poem, one passage lingers in the memory and reverberates there as the eye passes on to the next, to Mogallan Shravasti and Shiladitya Sarkar, subtly transiting, the mood of uninterrupted reverie, gentle changes from soft washes to firm brush strokes, from diaphanous forms to sharply focused details."It is all about being "says Minal Shah layering transparent images on identical portraits on all canvases. Her work talks about existence, entanglements, traffic of life, giving the viewer literally a visual ride.
