The artist has played with the concept of constant state The artist has played with the concept of constant stateof motion as it moulds, moves, fuses and contorts hisimagination from moment to moment. He has invited the viewerto share and experience the spatial intensity of moments whichotherwise are confined to the inner realm. "Unravel", his sketches in pen and ink with a whitebackground and strands of black talks about his understandingof relationships which one adopts through time in life. "Unravel alludes to the different personalities/ mentalpositions we all adopt for different circumstances andrelationships through time making us complete individuals,"Mehndiratta says while taking about his paintings at AllianceFrancaise de Delhi. "Pockets of Memory" along with "Albatross", "Stats" and"Weather" are some of his other works in the exhibition whichunravels the idea of where the history starts and the conceptof memory attached to it. "’Pockets of Memory’ represents the working of memory. Howdifferent remembrances acquire different emotional hues andbecome literally closets that open up when we choose toremember," says the artist. The artist’s interest in the domain of visual urbanrepresentation led him to create his first exhibition called"Placed Settings", in New York City where he explored the ideaof identity and the city through photography. The exhibition is on display at Alliance Franciase heretill August 30. PTI RJS ANSANS
