The pilgrimage of Italian artist Tarshito
New Indian Express“A fundamental topic of the creativity that I manifest is sacred geographies. He said we can start from wherever we want, for example, by working on the unity within us to be able to see and live on a planet without borders,” says the artist. A work on fabric he did with Mangu Ben, a textile artist from Gujarat, titled ‘Guerreiro D’Amore’, presents the figure of a yellow moustachioed man, who seems charged with an energy that radiates out of his body and the splendid flower that he holds to his chest. “Tarshito has infused energy into indigenous art practices by collaborating with inheritors of a pre-modern past,” says Tunty Chauhan, the curator of the exhibition. He also shares equal space in his work with indigenous artists from India, in the true spirit of collective collaboration,” she adds.
