THREE INCISIONS
2019

Three Incisions, brings three different fragments of building/crafting practices, from three different vantage points towards a critical frame; to understand a localisation of contexts of our cities. 
The work brings together three broken/damaged fragments scavenged and collected from sub-urban areas of Bangalore- a broken/damaged bee hive, a fragment of a tarred road, and a hand spun, handcrafted goat wool blanket from a community of goatherds, discarded in an urban waste bin. 
In a way, these three fragments of materialities signal towards a devaluation - of our environments in the form of the natural, the cultural and the public environment of our country. 
The work attempted to piece together, and repair the fragment to bring forward its current status, to provide an incisive and affective form to the viewer.
