Amol K Patil: The Shadow of LusterRöda Sten Konsthall, Göteborg, Sweden
In The Shadow of Lustre, Amol K Patil exhibits bronze sculptures, drawings and video works, in the pulsating lights of his poetic installations. The artist explores issues concerning the Indian caste and class system, and the invisibility of the working class in social narratives.
– The idea of the exhibition is based on seeing and experiencing the traces of human history, lives and conversations of different generations behind wall cracks, through layers of paint, across skin and touch. – Amol K Patil
The exhibition warns that the issue of class doesn´t only concern education, work and cultural background. It emphasizes that understanding the basis on which class positions are determined helps to uncover the structures of power and exploitation in our society.
Curator: Amila Puzić.
