Four installation artists create four distinct experiences across four floors in Liminal Gapsat the Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Centre, Mumbai. In ascending order are artists Ayesha Singh, Raqs Media Collective, Asim Waqif and Afrah Shafiq. Singh offers a monochromatic, yet incisive take on India’s architectural history; Raqs tracks the movement of time across time zones, imaginations, colour theory, and augmented reality(AR); Waqif creates a two-storeyed playhouse with indigenous building materials; and Shafiq imagines an interactive game on India’s early feminists, such as Pandita Ramabai and the Phules. Curated by Triadic, a New York-based agency, Liminal Gaps is an entry point to India’s installation art, beyond the public shows of Kala Ghoda Arts Festival and St+art in Mumbai.
