After a hiatus of nine years, artist Gopikrishna is back with his new solo exhibition, titled, Anything can happen. His surrealist artworks will be on display at Art Musings in Colaba. The first chapter of the two-part exhibition, In the Land of Never-Ending Story will display his works from the past decade. 

The artist, who hails from Travancore, belongs to a lineage that includes legendary personalities of Kerala like Raja Ravi Varma, and Sekhara Warrier. His artworks, however, distinguish themselves from those of his ancestors as he prefers to stray away from portraying civilised order. Yet, his art remains highly inspired by his South Indian roots. “Works at this show represent the area of travel that my mind has traversed in the past 10 years. A war has been raging from the outer world, which has tried to overthrow even the last store of belief in all things good. Human beings, as a free society,  have experienced unimaginable restrictions during this period. These situations have provided great challenges that have provoked me and led  me to fresh visions. These visions finally secured their eternal space in the works that one will see at this exhibition,” the artist shares about his recent  creations.
