What is this life, if full of care, we have no time to stand and stare… and certainly not at the ceiling in a fast metropolis. International media artists Sarah Kenderdine, Berndt Lintermann and Jeffrey Shaw, however, spent hours staring at the ceilings in the city and have brought to us stories of a diverse and rich Mumbai through their mixed media exhibition, Look Up Mumbai. The team, in partnership with the Jindal South West Foundation and Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Vastu Sangrahalaya (CSMVS), will exhibit the installation at the museum starting today. The allure of the ceilings, Kenderdine says, is the unrivalled architectural heritage.
