Palette Art Gallery in collaboration with Bihar Museum presents Kaghaz Ki Kashti – Retracing Memories of Boyhood, a major retrospective exhibition by acclaimed contemporary sculptor Rajesh Ram. Drawing from deeply personal memories of his childhood in rural Jharkhand, the exhibition brings together an extensive body of work that traces Ram’s artistic journey from village life to one of India’s most distinctive contemporary sculptural practices. Through recurring motifs of paper boats, rivers, trees, birds, children, and everyday rural life, the exhibition explores themes of memory, ecology, migration, belonging, and the enduring connection between people and place.
