Extremely honoured to be selected to participate in the first ever India Art, Architecture and Design Biennale organised by the Ministry of Culture, Government of India. 150 artworks of 75 artists from across India were selected for the event inaugurated by the PM of India, Shri Narendra Modi. It was an absolute honor to have the Prime minister of India view my artworks!

Our show was wonderfully curated by Dr. Abira. In addition there were 7 themed exhibitions, each spanning 3 or more floors, panel discussions, workshops and more all within the iconic, 17th century Red Fort!! Just brilliant! Art for everyone indeed. And what a crowd response it was!

One of the most heartening aspects I found was how accessible it was to the public... those who may not ever make it to galleries anytime soon! I saw construction workers, people from interior parts of the country and lots and lots of children and school kids apart from the urban population who are exposed more to such events. Entry was free those 7 days and it opened it up to a lot of people. It was very interesting interacting with such a diverse group of people and seeing them respond to different aspects of art, architecture and design.
