ABOUT THE EXHIBITION:
Art has an inordinate inherent power to bring forward a greater change in society. The world has seen the diverse impact of art from time immemorial. In the growing phase of globalization and day to day technological innovations, millennials have continuous negotiations and contestations within their peer groups and surroundings. Creativity acts as a mirror as well as medium of expression to the culture and civilization we partake in. What we feel is that to balance out the ecosystem we live in, there is a dire need for ingenious creativity. Art is treated as a soft skill and in the current scenario also acts as a soft power on the global platform to carry forward the exchange of dialogues among people with different ideologies.
