The Kiran Nadar Museum of Art (KNMA) presents its latest multi-artist exhibition titled ‘Very Small Feelings’. It is the fourth exhibition in the ‘Young Artists of Our Times’ series, and is in collaboration with the Samdani Art Foundation, Dhaka.
A curatorial collaboration between Rastogi (Senior Curator, KNMA), Campbell (Chief Curator, Dhaka Art Summit) Ruxmini Choudhury (Assistant Curator, Samdani Art Foundation), Avik Debdas and Swati Kumari (Curatorial and Research Associates, KNMA), this exhibition was first displayed at the Dhaka Art Summit in February this year.
Roobina Karode, Director and Chief Curator at KNMA, says, “‘Very Small Feelings’ is nurtured by a dynamic working and collaborative effort between curators Akansha Rastogi and Diana Campbell, with the coming together of two institutions in South Asia, the Kiran Nadar Museum of Art and Samdani Art Foundation. For viewers, the exhibition tends to become a space for action, emotion, exploration and reflection, with works of diverse scale, material and content.”
The exhibition explores the theme of childhood and its significance as a mutable space that one can enter and exit at will. It brings together artists, child-artists, and visitors to envision and construct environments, architectural spaces, and various emotional intensities. Through play, storytelling, participation, and deliberate engagement, the exhibition aims to tap into the inner child that resides within each of us, forging a strong connection.
With a focus on oral traditions and the generative power of storytelling, “Very Small Feelings” features a diverse array of forty-two projects. These include new commissions, historical works, performances, books, personal and institutional archives, artist-inspired installations, and immersive landscapes.
