“Purusha Prakriti” explores the deep connection between humans (Purusha) and nature (Prakriti). The exhibition features a diverse range of artworks, including sculptures, ceramics, drawings, printmaking, and paintings. These pieces reflect the harmony between man and nature, a theme that is especially relevant in today’s world.

Paintings by artists like Manu Parekh, Arpitha Reddy, Pratul Dash, and Poonam Bhatnagar explore themes of spirituality, mythology, and the feminine form. Notably, Muzaffar Ali presents a new calligraphy series that he began in Delhi in 2024.
Devin Gawarvala, the founder of Bespoke Art Gallery, expressed his pride in hosting this exhibition.
