About tHE ExHibition

ALSA - a celebration in its truest sense; brings together a vibrant group of modern and contemporary Indian artists to Singapore, creating a shared space where colour, memory, skill, and imagination meet. Rooted in the many languages of Indian art and culture, the exhibition unfolds like a gathering: spirited, layered, and alive with dialogue across generations and mediums.

At the heart of Jalsa is Krishen Khanna, whose iconic figures carry the poetry of everyday life, observing the world with empathy, wit, and a lifelong conviction in human dignity. Thota Vaikuntam offers a striking visual universe of identity and presence, where bold forms and timeless faces evoke the spirit of Telangana with a modern, unmistakable grandeur. The contemplative intensity of Phaneendra Nath Chaturvedi adds another register; drawing viewers into a quieter realm of line, symbol, and inner narrative, where tradition and personal myth converge.

Completing this celebratory chorus are the fantastical hand painted sculptures of Yashika Sugandh — playful, intricate, and dreamlike. Miniature worlds that blur the boundaries between object and story, humour and wonder. Together with the exhibition's wider ensemble, Jalsa becomes a meeting of energies: a cultural offering from India to Singapore, and an invitation to experience art as both inheritance and joy.
