FOR THE TIME BEING ❤️
Visited the Kochi-Muziris Biennale last week at Aspinwall House, Fort Kochi and I’m still absorbing the experience. 😍🙌
66 artists/collectives from over 25 countries, spread across 20 plus venues for 110 days.
What began in 2012 as India’s first contemporary art biennale has today grown into one of the most important cultural movements in South Asia.
Conceived by artists Bose Krishnamachari and Riyas Komu, the Biennale redefined how a city can become a living gallery. And what a way to bring global art to India !
Walking through these historic warehouses and courtyards, you realise it’s a conversation between art and history, memory and politics, ecology and identity. Not meteky an exhibition.
Artists from across the world, site-specific installations, performances, films, sound, everyday objects, all stitched into the fabric of Fort Kochi itself.
Art that questions, unsettles, provokes, and stays with you.
If you haven’t experienced the Biennale yet, pls don’t read about it. Walk through it. Let it work on you.
