Revert to the Nucleus, Women on Women:
Sensibilities, prejudices, spirituality, joyful madness, all vie desperately with the onus of innumerable
responsibilities for a woman’s mind-space. Would it be too far from the truth to say that it is this very
crowded-with-care mind that makes a woman hold on and keenly nurture the transient finer feelings and
abstract thoughts that cross her emotional domain.
Or, is it, that
God destined women to create- cook, arrange, decorate and procreate, and the arts, as formally identified, are
nothing but a natural offshoot? Whichever way, it stands that the woman has the gift to create and where it
engages in an aesthetic dialogue with the canvas, purity, ecstasy, pain or joyful madness take form and
translates into captivating “art”.
“Revert to the Nucleus” seemed to be an apt prefix to a name earlier decided for this exhibition by ICCR, i.e., “Women on Women”, intending to draw strength and succor from the inner core within the woman, and showcase a brilliant
collection of art-work, which otherwise would have faded back into the oblivion of the artists studios.
