Main Shunya Hun: A group art exhibition

Manantar Art will present Main Shunya Hun: From ‘I’ to Infinity, a three-day group exhibition bringing together established, emerging and six young neurodiverse artists, at Lokayata Art Gallery, Hauz Khas, New Delhi, from September 4 to 6. Curated by artist, author and Manantar Art founder Dr Shipra Bhatia, the exhibition explores Shunya as a space of consciousness, transformation and creative possibility.

The exhibition approaches Shunya not as emptiness but as a state of possibility, with the premise “Creation is the Creator | Creator is Creation”. Through Mandala, Spiritual and Symbolic Art, the participating artists use geometry, colour, repetition and visual symbolism to explore introspection and the inner self. The exhibition moves through five stages — Awakening, Seeking, Transformation, Enlightenment and Peace.

Among the participating artists are Roop Chand, Shekhar Kar, Sanjay Bhola, Nishtha Puri, Anees Fathima, Deepshikha Bishoyi, Deepali Grover, Divya Anand, Debika Saha and several other contemporary practitioners. Six young neurodiverse artists — Pratham Bhatnagar, Morpheus Nag, Oasis Mohapatra, Awadh Bhatia, Anmol Labar and Nirvaan Idal Tripathi — will also exhibit alongside professional artists.
