Art Captures Fading City Memories
29 Sep
Summary
- Exhibition explores how places survive in memory after physical changes.
- Artist uses weathered walls and urban decay to depict memory.
- Work reflects on changing cities and embedded personal memories.
An exhibition titled 'A Moment's Reprieve' by Ahmedabad artist Pulkit Prajapati is set to open on October 2. The collection will be on display until October 27, exploring how urban landscapes persist in memory.
Prajapati's paintings feature weathered walls and decaying structures, capturing the essence of places that may have physically changed. These artworks serve as traces, reflecting on the dynamic nature of cities.
The exhibition signifies a departure for Prajapati, who previously focused on human figures. Now, his landscape work contemplates how locations become embedded in personal memory through layers of paint and texture.
Curated by Samir Wadekar, 'A Moment's Reprieve' views memory as a fluid reconstruction, moving beyond simple representation to explore the experience and retention of landscapes.
