English philosopher Herbert Spencer's theory of evolution, popularised by Charles Darwin, argues survival of the fittest, thereby leading to a natural process of selection and extinction. This theory often applies to creative minds and thinkers who flag the perils of their times. Visual artist Reena Kallat is a signaller of struggles. This time, in her ongoing solo presentation by Nature Morte in Delhi explores climate-related impact and the interconnectedness of our world. The linkages of our contemporary lives came to be accentuated for Kallat during the pandemic years. She says, "I was collecting found images and archiving them. Patterns increasingly became more evident to me by the way climate events in one region influence those in another."
