Solo Exhibition: 23 November – 21 December, 2024

Saturday, November 23rd, 3-6pm

Patel Brown, 372 rue Ste-Catherine O, #410, Montréal

Surabhi Ghosh, Taken in, Taking on #6, 2020-2023, glass beads, nylon thread, powder-coated steel, 72 x 72 in.

For her first solo exhibition with Patel Brown, Surabhi Ghosh presents a network of five lyrical works illustrating her long-standing dedication to incremental, monochromatic patterns that challenge our perception and emphasize the precarity of the systems that surround us. Working with principles of weight, volume, and density, the artist forms a body of site-responsive installations that explore the pliability of socially-determined borders and hierarchies. Applying these forces into simple gestures, Ghosh ushers an idiosyncratic metaphysics into the gallery space. In so doing, her versatile patterns offer audiences concurrent avenues for interpretation and calls them in to participate.
