Measure of Lucidity

Jitha Karthikeyan has curated a group show to deconstruct the complexities that plague the human existence. ‘Measures of Lucidity’ includes paintings, drawings and video installations.

As a society, are we heading towards a tangled reality? Are we forgetting the plain and the simple that make up our life? The works in the show urge you to rethink this chaos and seek pellucidity.

The show features the works of some of the finest contemporary artists in our country – Arpita Singh, George Martin P J, K M Madhusudhanan, Muktinath Mondal, Parvathi Nayar, T V Santhosh and Zakkir Hussain.

In a world that constantly embraces grander things, the simple and the uncomplicated are sometimes hidden away in plain sight and often, negated. As a society, are we heading towards a tangled reality – one that revels in constructing layered complexities until the discernible is completely masked and dons the garb of the impenetrability of understanding. Chaos is then the consequence of such convolutions.

Moving towards an uncertain future, it is time to rethink, deconstruct and seek pellucidity, lest we lose what really matters in the cacophony of it all. Life and survival lie in the core of the little details we have missed or have chosen to ignore, if only we could navigate through the complex social, political or economic layers to grasp them in our vision.
