The aim always is to not just appeal visually but also intellectually and promote sustainable use of our resources. Indeed, Camouflage, the show in Mumbai, will see the artist creating installations from a combination of found and procured matter extracted from nature, and scattered across the premises of the garden. The show has been organised by the group Khanabadosh. As the theme suggests, Kolleri has used these elements to create installations that blend with the garden as they await to be explored by curious visitors, perhaps a representation of the garden itself, which has blended itself into the city waiting to be discovered by its visitors. His works have been admired by everyone both nationally and internationally. Kolleri will also be conducting a special talk, where he will introduce visitors to his artwork and the philosophy behind it. Till February 20, 6 am to 11 am and 4.30 pm to 8.30 pm At Mumbai Port Trust Garden, behind Sassoon Docks, WG Union Road, opposite Colaba Bus Station, Colaba. Special talk On February 13, 5 to 7 pm followed by an informal session At Studio X, fourth floor, Kitab Mahal, DN Road, Fort.u00a0
