Event Description : "Glaciers of Reflection" a solo show of paintings by Rekha Jaggi.

There is a little bit of European summer in Rekha Jaggi’s paintings; also there is bit of Himalayas and Alps. When a blue ocean meets a blameless sky on a summer afternoon their conversations foam into waves and clouds. Standing before the works of Gurgaon based Rekha Jaggi, a viewer might get the feeling ofbeing pulled into a pointillist heaven where unlike the late nineteenth century French masters of Pointillism this artist uses only variants of white, blue, brown and green. Sparkling reds and maddening yellows, and the swirling of strokes areabsent here, still these paintings remind the viewer of something beyond ‘Indian’. I would qualify Rekha Jaggi’s works as ‘New Indian’ works for the simple reason that they exude the ‘feel’ of an international scenario that has come to define the new Indian realities. The near absence of human figures and the predominant presence of architectural structures seen from various angles give these works a sense of urban solidity only to be contrasted with another body of works by the same artist done with a different palette both in hand and mind. Hence the present body of Rekha Jaggi’s paintings could be seen as two aspects of the same artistic mind, not thinking in opposing directions but in parallels, constantly reminding the viewer of the erasure of things that urbanization causes.
