Akar Prakar presents Still, They Speak, a solo exhibition featuring the works of Nagji Patel. To stand before a sculpture by Nagji Patel is to encounter a distilled quietude, a stillness, in which the form, balance, and texture are held in perfect tension. In over six decades of his practice, Patel developed a sculptural language that echoed his expertise in the medium of stone, while showcasing a uniquely modernist aesthetic. The exhibition Still, They Speak attempts to trace the arc of a career that exemplifies a grounded and disciplined approach to an artistic practice, even with his monumental oeuvre.
