“Evoke is a testament to the profound impact art can have on us. We are thrilled to present a collection of works by 16 talented artists that will evoke a variety of sensations and transport viewers into a realm where perception and reality blur. This show is a celebration of the power of art to move, transform and connect us all” said Aarti Uppal Singla.
For the viewers, it was an opportunity to be surrounded by inspiring art. As one took a walk around the paintings, they were enticed and impressed by the beauty that lay within. In order to make the show more experiential talks, workshops and movie screenings were organised. Art is the rhythm of life and each brush stroke is like a new story with a new opportunity. Engaging with art is traversing into a new world where one feels connected to the soul.
