Anant Art presents a compelling new group art exhibition in New Delhi, mapping how our psychological and emotional landscapes shape the modern metropolis. Through diverse viewpoints, twelve contemporary artists look beyond concrete structures to capture the ghosts of lived experiences in domestic and public spaces.
About the Exhibition
Cartographies of Remembrance, presented by Studio Catalyst by Anant Art, approaches the contemporary city not as a finished product, but as an evolving palimpsest. The group art exhibition in New Delhi frames the city as an ever-shifting canvas, scraped clean and rewritten over time while still retaining previous histories. Each participating artist probes how the overwhelming vastness of a metropolis can be distilled into highly intimate, deeply reflective stories.
Key Themes and Highlights
The presenting artists seamlessly navigate between individual and collective memories, mapping domestic spaces, childhood nostalgia, and everyday encounters. Highlighting works like Dakshayani Chippada’s Echoes of Presence – 2 (2026), the show examines how architectural remnants and everyday materials hold or distort memory over time. Through these poignant visual explorations, even the most mundane fragments of urban life become potent sites of belonging and profound absence.
The Vision of Studio Catalyst
This exhibition represents the latest showcase under the banner of Studio Catalyst, a progressive two-year initiative launched by Anant Art in 2025. Acting as an incubator rather than a traditional representational gallery space, Studio Catalyst equips emerging artists with sustained curatorial mentorship, residency collaborations, and vital peer networks. By prioritizing infrastructures of care, the developmental programme ensures that these rising voices can challenge conventional boundaries and thrive on their own terms.
