The exhibition Molting the Fractured is based on ideas and notions Sandeep Mukherjee has been working on for ten years. The work, currently in progress, will be finished this summer. During the artist’s residency in Berlin, initiated by 68projects and the Villa Aurora & Thomas Mann House e.V. The work, spread over all three rooms of the gallery, will have its world premiere in Berlin.
For over a decade, Sandeep Mukherjee’s work has been exploring the concept of abstracting as a means to image, carve or slice a particular aspect of flowing matter. The artist’s work in painting, drawing and installation is process-oriented and improvisational. Following multiple paths of inquiry, such as translating the performing body, subtracting the material body and folding the architectural body, the work explores the relationship between process, affect and image.
