An exhibition that brings together the works of 17 female artists: a symphony of symbols and experiences that allows us to understand other far away realities. The title PUSH THE LIMITS declares art’s ability to constantly push itself to the edge in order to move the axis of thought, perception and discourse. Shilpa Gupta shows “WheredoIendandyoubegin”, which innately questions the nature of borders, how they are over emphasized and the effect this has on communities.

The exhibition deals with the phenomenon of the cloud from a current artistic perspective. It ranges from the reproduction and transformation of the natural motif to the technical infrastructure of clouds and their affects. Shilpa Gupta’s series “Unnoticed” are part of the exhibition; the photographic works are a reference to the culture of repair, camouflage and adaptation that prevails in the border region between India and Bangladesh.
