For artist Midhun Gopi, emotionality and memory are inseparable to our existence. So, he finds a way to weave them into his works. If you walk into Byculla's Nine Fish Art Gallery, you'll notice panels with multiple paintings that Gopi has worked on in the past two years. They stand out due to the blood red patches — watercolour and acrylic on rice paper that he has sourced from Santiniketan and Gangtok. But the exhibition titled Mutant Spaces, in association with Dot Line Space curated by Gourmoni Das, and comprising the work of three artists Ananda Krishnan, Shahanshah Mittal and Gopi has much more to offer, in terms of medium, technique, and how each artist perceives space.
