A group art exhibition called “The Call of the Mirror,” curated by Rohit J Kapoor, was held at the historic Travancore Palace in New Delhi. The exhibition explores the meeting point of different artistic visions and personal perceptions, offering a range of artworks that invite viewers to connect with the art on a personal level, becoming part of the creative process.
The artworks touch on various themes, including social divides, environmental impact, spirituality, and challenging traditional ideas about masculinity. These pieces encourage viewers to find art in their surroundings, become influenced by it, and gain a deeper understanding of themselves through others’ perspectives.
The exhibition was organized by Viraya Eko, which supports emerging artists who blend cultural traditions with contemporary issues in powerful and thought-provoking ways.
Artists like Oliver Sinclair, known for his portrait and street photography, and Nandini Jhabua, who has promoted tribal art for over a decade, were present. Rohit J Kapoor, both an artist and curator, aims to initiate conversations that break down barriers and connect art with life meaningfully.
The exhibition featured works by artists like Asha Thadani, who addresses issues such as caste and child labor through photography, and Suvajit Mondal, a ceramic artist who explores the relationship between nature and human impact. Notable guests, including artist Asit Kumar Patnaiyak, Sudip Rpy VIdyotma Singh artist Aparna Kakaria attended the event. Guests enjoyed a specially curated menu by chef Nishant Choubey, featuring dishes like Kathal Champaran kebab with plum chutney, Panchphoran compressed chilled watermelon, Beetroot Pitha, and Sula wine.
