As we enter the artist’s apartment in Walkeshwar and are led towards her studio, we find Nandita Chaudhuri working on one of the many sculptures that will be up on display at Gallery Art & Soul after the initial set-up at IFBE in Ballard Estate. Soon after, we settle down in the living room, which is dotted with her artworks.

These include the oversized chair with newspaper cutouts printed on it, to the art installation titled Panchbhutam, which took center stage at the Kala Ghoda Arts Festival this February. The multimedia pieces she did for Subhash Ghai for the “100 Years of Indian Cinema” showcase at Film City adorn the walls behind the sofa, where we sit to talk about her upcoming exhibition, UNMASKED. The exhibition is a sensory experience that boasts 12 digital films, 11 sculptures, and 
40 paintings.
