Overview

The works on view in Patil’s solo exhibition delve not into a grand subject but into an entirely ordinary body. His portrayal of the body creates a dialogue between the corporeal form, living space, and the walls. As the relationship between the body and space shifts, as the body is transformed and reconstructed, this dialogue unfolds sometimes as a pas de deux, at times as a dizzying straight punch. Other times, the body becomes part of the space; still other times, the walls fuse with the skin of the body in a synchronized breath.
