Ramesh Thorat, a participating artist, who hails from a small village near Pune will exhibit a surprising yet thoughtful artwork by using nails. He explains, “A nail is not just a nail for me, its something beyond that. It is about giving birth to a new dimension of human understanding.”

“It conveys the journey of evolution from an amoeba to a human. Further elaborating the use of your abilities,” he elaborates.
