The future of tech-art is human
Live MintVarun Desai’s Kolkata studio is like a techno-den. Take, for instance, the India Art Fair’s first edition of the Digital Artists-in-Residence series, which showcases the latest work by Malhotra and Desai, and the poet-digital artist Gaurav Ogale. “The support we are extending to tech-based art projects is both natural and deliberate as the concentration of such work will potentially increase in the days to come,” says Smriti Rajgarhia, director, Serendipity Arts Foundation and Festival. “The degree of diverse collaboration in digital and tech-based arts is quite wide, allowing artists to expand their creative universe and degree of experimentation.” The Delhi-based Gujral Foundation too has chosen an AI-driven project by multidisciplinary artist Raghava K.K. “With Sarbh, for example, Gaurav created a visual world of William Carlos Williams’ poem Danse Russe, a favourite of the actor, with outline drawings of the actordancing to the voice-over of Sarbh reciting the poem,” states a note by the India Art Fair.
