    'Mask Exhibitions 2012' an exhibition by Nav Siddhartha Art group opened at Lalit kala on 01 Jan was a collective exhibition on Mask by 300 artists hailing from all parts of the country. The masks exhibited human emotions of greed, desire, anger, happiness and human behavior in a natural form. The venue gave impressions of peeping faces, staring and conveying something so known to all of us. It has also provided a platform to upcoming artists from various parts of the country to show case their talent.
    However the theme and the contours of the exhibition reminded all the visitors to the gallery of PEHCHAN, a painting exhibition on human emotions by Aarti zaveri in the month of Aug 2011 and surprisingly at Lalit Kala itself. Pehchan by Aarti Zaveri represented human characteristics like greed, falsified promises, desire and avarice and the transformation in human behavior through masks. The deliberations, discretion of images coupled with strong use of colour belonged to a sort of figurative expressionisms which at times verged in to the point of Abstraction, which spoke by itself and communicated strong message.
    I wonder if 'Mask Exhibitions 2012' is an extension of thoughts provoked through Pehacahn or simply a transformation of ideas from canvas to Mural.
