Event Description : Alliance Francaise de Delhi presents "The Mask" journey continues...an exhibition by Naresh Kapuria.
The mask is a projection of our serene outer self as it disguises the suffering of the tortured inner soul. We often wish to have a power that not just allows us to read someone's mind but also our own at times, to see who lives behind that face. At one end masks symbolizes the face of falsehood, at another they give us an all new identity - a new face.
Masks can project our tumultuous state of mind and hide those inner feelings. Mask can shield us from danger or can suggest danger to others. They can be part of our assumption of what we would like to be, or of what we fear we may become.
Every individual mask is reflective of how we perceive ourselves, how we want others to perceive us, and how we perceive those around us. Basically, leading a simple life, devoid of any dual-faced identity is not so tough but then how to convince the mind, which keeps throwing up wild thoughts and worries to complicate things or rather life further.
Naresh Kapuria is one of the most creative contemporary artists whose understanding of the arts spans diverse disciplines. He has been awarded with the Chevalier des Arts et Lettres by the French Government, one of the highest recognitions in the field of art; Award of excellence from the Romanian Government; the Order of the Crown from the Government of Belgium; the Charles Wallace Trust Award UK and the Triennial of India Award. Naresh Kapuria is an artist by soul, having more than 40 years of experience in the field using different mediums he has also designed several Festivals in India and abroad.
