Mirror/Maze: Echoes of Song, Space and Spectre

Kiran Nadar Museum of Art presents Mirror/Maze: Echoes of Song,  Space and Spectre in the Noida space. With an overwhelming reception from viewers in Saket, New Delhi the life of the exhibition is being extended and expanded with the inclusion of  additional works. Bringing together works of 24 artists from KNMA’s diverse collection the exhibition opened to the public on Thursday, January 25 and is on display at KNMA, Noida till the end of March, 2024. 

This exhibition owes its stimulus to artists and the provocations they present through their distinctive forms of practice, initiating a re-thinking about art and its presence in our lives. Their self-willed journeys draw us into the unique and strange worlds they create through ‘affect states’ of sound and silence, meditation and labour, stillness and action, emptiness and  fullness. By disrupting the sense of space/place, de-stabilising the notion of a fixed image,  accelerating and slowing down the experience of time, they raise our consciousness towards  the complexities encountered in our experience of the everyday along with the lingering fear  of the unknown. 

Curated by Roobina Karode (Director and Chief Curator, KNMA) with Avijna Bhattacharya,  Debashree Banerjee, Madhurima Chaudhuri and Agastaya Thapa, the exhibition allows the  viewers to engage with a wide spectrum of artistic experiences, from drawing, paintings and sculptures to digital presences, Computer Generated Imagery (CGI), generative Artificial  Intelligence (AI) and computer coded hyperrealities.

The museum is closed on Monday and all public holidays. Admission to exhibitions is free
