Artist Ankush Safaya’s ‘Memory Trace’ is a show that aims to transcend the boundaries between reality and imagination, taking viewers on a captivating journey.

The exhibition has been brought together by Lattitude 28 in collaboration with Sakshi Gallery.

Safaya is known for his mastery of transforming thought into expressive art, inviting viewers to embark on their own introspective journey of memories and connections.

His works exude a serene stillness, yet upon closer examination, they reveal a pulsating kinetic energy, conveying profound messages of the human experience. With a unique fusion of engineering and artistic vision, Safaya reconstructs structures and mechanisms, giving birth to new forms characterized by balance and rhythm.

Drawing inspiration from personal experiences, literature, and music, the artist weaves together a tapestry of connections, deconstructing and reimagining the past while delving into the complexities of life.

Each artwork in this exhibition is a testament to his mastery of transforming thoughts into expressive art, inviting viewers to embark on their own introspective journey of memories and connections.

“Having observed Ankush’s work for over the years, I am glad that we are finally showcasing his practice in this new exhibition. Ankush’s art serves as a catalyst, triggering memories and creating immersive spaces of remembrance. With his unique blend of engineering and artistic vision, Ankush reconstructs structures and mechanisms, giving birth to new forms characterised by balance and rhythm,” Bhavna Kakar, founder of Lattitude 28, said.
