Acche Din by Tyler
Following a sold out debut show at Method during Mumbai Gallery Weekend 2021, Tyler returns with a Independence Day show before going on an indefinite hiatus. The show opens 15th August, and runs for only a week. Featuring a new set of works and a video installation that reflect on the current state of our nation, the largely minimal works are offset by a brutal splatter of paint across the gallery.
A juxtaposition to highlight the not-so-hidden chaos masked by an artificial sheen manufactured by the state.
Show Dates : Sunday,15th August 2021 to Sunday, 22nd August 2021
