FORCE OF NATURE

The recording of time in the natural world has long fascinated Alwar Balasubramaniam.

In earlier shows he has uncovered for us the layering of memories and materials in sedimentary rocks, the patterns created over time in wood and the slow deposition of substances in the formation of intricate shells. In his latest solo, Mirror on the Ground, on display at Delhi’s Talwar Art Gallery, from the 7th of February to the 1st of July, he makes us aware of the march of time as understood through acts that are premised on the evaporation of water bodies.
