Event Description : "Astronomically Small" an exhibition of ceramics by Rahul Kumar.
Excerpt from an essay by Roobina Karode: “astronomically small” is a recent body of ceramic work by Rahul Kumar, showcasing primarily a cluster of ultra-tiny pots that epitomize in art, the true strength of the axiom “less is more”. Drawn to its malleability and its transformative nature, Rahul brings clay to life; his miniature forms acquire a serene presence in the space around them. Divesting his palm-held pots of their primary utilitarian existence, Rahul extends their being into realms of subjectivity and imagination. The transference of scale, the play on colour, and the slight eccentricities that nudge the symmetry of the perfectly centered pots intrigue the viewer, unsettling our readymade observations to seek meanings embodied within the form.
