Event Description : Art Alive Gallery & The Oberoi present "Devi" a solo exhibition of Sculptures & Installations by Narayan Sihna.

Art Alive Gallery and The Oberoi, Gurgaon collaborate to organise a series art exhibitions at The Oberoi, Gurgaon. The first show organised by Art Alive Gallery is a solo exhibition of sculptor Narayan Sihna.

In Hinduism Devi is the female manifestation of the divine or the supreme lord. She is the symbol of Shakti or strength. Narayan Sinha, through his sculptures and installations showcases the reality that every woman is an avatar of the supreme goddess in one sense or the other. Devi is his ode to womanhood, a tribute to her internal and external beauty, her compassion and her strength that has always inspired him.

The show is a spectacle of the artist’s awestrucking creativity and simulating imagination. By weaving discarded materials together to create magnificent sculptures and installations, the artist has depicted the strong bond between craft and fine arts. The sculptures made of automobile parts, utensils, latches, locks, keys, pipes, boxes, wood, nuts and metal scraps tell a story of the life of every woman, which resonates with all cultures. The story has a universal and modern language that puts a light on the dichotomy between the simplicity and purity of her soul and the complexity and struggle of her life.

Narayan Sinha is a native of Nalhati, a small town in the Birbhum district of West Bengal. He is now based in Kolkata.
