Shridharani Gallery, Triveni Kala Sangam, New Delhi, will host a two-artist exhibition titled Stray Birds, opening on April 20 and running until April 28. A preview will be held on April 19 from 6 PM onwards. The exhibition is organised by Art Magnum.
Curated by Jyotirmoy Bhattacharya, Stray Birds brings together the works of artists Indrapramit Roy and Mark Cazalet, presenting a dialogue between two distinct yet deeply interconnected artistic journeys shaped by shared time, encounters, and lived experience. The exhibition reflects on memory, movement, and the evolving language of contemporary figurative practice.
The artists include Indrapramit Roy and Mark Cazalet.
Stray Birds traces the parallel yet converging trajectories of the two artists, whose formative years in Baroda under the mentorship of Prof. Gulam Mohammed Sheikh became a defining chapter in their artistic evolution. Their shared experiences—ranging from study trips to Ajanta and Ellora to interactions within a vibrant circle of artists including Bhupen Khakhar—form the conceptual backbone of the exhibition. While Roy’s practice engages with layered, politically charged spatial narratives, Cazalet’s work draws from a sustained observational engagement with life, memory, and the sacred dimensions of the everyday.
The exhibition reflects how both artists continue to document lived experience through drawing and painting, often working through sketchbooks and visual journals that capture fleeting moments of people, places, and encounters. Though their visual languages differ, their practices intersect in their commitment to observation, memory, and the act of witnessing life as it unfolds.
Curator Jyotirmoy Bhattacharya notes, “These two artists, shaped by different geographies and sensibilities, were brought together by chance and sustained by friendship. Their journeys reveal how encounters, however fleeting, can leave lasting imprints that continue to shape artistic thought and practice. Stray Birds is an attempt to follow those imprints across time.”
