Red Blister (2014), a video-box in Remedies by audio-visual artist Surabhi Saraf

At Remedies, Surabhi Saraf’s new solo exhibition in the city, you hover around a box, the size of a modest refrigerator, on which a video strip goes around. Blister packs get filled with yellow pills in this video-box called Yellow Blister; there is another called Red Blister.
