Shilpa Gupta's Everyday Art

Who are we? What do we fear and why? What separates us from each other? What is freedom? Many of Shilpa Gupta’s artworks ask these questions. Using everyday objects, text, video and light installations — she evokes themes of identity, borders and belonging. Written with Shilpa, the insightful narrative provides context and cues for specially curated activities inspired by the works of one of India’s leading contemporary artists. An exploration that invites young people to look at, respond to and see the world in brave new ways, just like she does. The design, too, echoes the artist’s attempts at pushing boundaries through her practice of art.
