The Goddess & The Godless
by The Gallery of Gnani Arts
Location: The Gallery of Gnani Arts
Date: 7 Oct - 18 Oct 2011

"The Goddess and The Godless is a conceptual exhibition that is meant to provoke and challenge the selected seven participating artists into manipulating popular and/or personal contexts within a microscopic fragment of the incalculably wide spectrum of World Mythology, leaning towards a cultural perspective that is quintessentially Asian. The exhibition presents a thought-provoking and aesthetically-appealing collection of mainly paintings by Singapore-based artists from various cultural backgrounds, such as Tasneem Moochhala, Sarbani Bhattacharya, Joyotee Ray Chaudhury, Subhashini Balasubramanian, J.Kalidass, Sujata Jain and Praema Raghavan-Gilbert. The Tree of Life, the Yali, the Buddha, the ardhanareeswara, the Divine Androgyne, the Kamadhenu and the Yin-Yang concept are some of the visual and notional trajectories that the esteemed artists of this exhibition have taken the legitimate liberty to contextually re-situate, projecting the exhibition as an indisputable amalgamation of perspectives that salutes the timeless relevance of what is commonly perceived as mythology, and responds to the imperative need to question and re-interpret the seemingly enduring impact of its metaphorical versatility in current times."

- Vidhya Gnana Gouresan, Curator of the exhibition
