Inherent Conversations – II
Artist – S Gopinath
The intriguing sculptural installation draws attention to the apparent inertia of the realistically portrayed figure, bodily embedded within a solid block, and the attractive gilded egg in front of it. The empty seats around invite viewers to join the act of contemplation and self-reflection, which the artist wishes to provoke. Through the sculptural installation, Gopinath expands his commentary on the human condition, and the inability of humanity to negate feelings of insecurity and intolerance that lead to violence. He uses his art and the symbolism of materiality to mirror society and its conundrums.
