The works on display address various themes. Manjunath Kamath’s terracotta sculptures use abstract forms to question humanity’s challenges. Veer Munshi’s portrayal of the Jhelum River reflects Kashmir’s history and present-day complexities. G.R. Iranna’s Silent Portrait draws on childhood memories and spirituality, creating a reflective narrative.

Tilak Samarawickrema’s work adapts Sri Lankan weaving techniques into a personal artistic style informed by his architectural background. The exhibition as a whole examines materialism, consumerism, and their environmental consequences while proposing a vision of a more balanced and inclusive world.

Curator Ina Puri explains, “This project explores the possibility of a harmonious future where dialogue and creativity can address issues like climate change and social conflict.”

The exhibition is open to all and engages with critical issues relevant to contemporary society.
