Shubham Malav solo show at Alliance Française

Exhibition to start from December 15 to 20, 2023 in Delhi.

Gallery Sree Arts is all set to organise an exhibition of paintings and sculptures by artist Shubham Malav from December 15 to 20, 2023 at Galerie Roman Rolland, Alliance Française de Delhi Lodhi Road, New Delhi. The artist, hailing from Chittaurgarh, Rajasthan wanted to emphasise how power plays a vital role in everyone’s life, whether positive or negative. As an artist, he wants to discover new thoughts and to get inspiration, he seeks refuge in the hills.

Curated by Jitendra Padam Jain and promoted by Kari, the Power Series showcases the futile fight for dominance which crushes and destroys peace and humanity. The endless tussel to gain power is seen in the race to the top, in advancing weapons for war, in the fierce discord on the streets, in the schism amongst people across the world.

Shubham spent his childhood in Rajasthan, a land steeped in history and noted for the imposing forts and ostentatious palaces of its Rajput rulers. While people saw grandiose historical architecture, Shubham saw strife and violence and the thirst for control over land and people.

Children were being taught to be more aggressive and competitiveness encouraged from an early age. These complex emotions find their way on Shubham’s canvases where he tries to truthfully express pain, anger, anguish, and bitterness in the society. He has a unique drawing style, his artworks are very colourful, the people he draws have exaggerated features, sometimes grotesque and eerie. He creates a detailed fantasy world that reflects our disturbing society. Shubham received his Diploma from the Institute of Fine Arts, Meerut. He works out of Chittorgarh, Rajasthan and Noida, Uttar Pradesh. He has participated in several group shows. His artworks include life size paintings with mixed media and installations.
