Gallery escape presents Where does the light fall by Tanmoy Samanta, In this contemporary milieu of intense productivity and the quintessential race ‘against time’ the quiet poetry of Tanmoy Samanta’s work draws us into these liminal spaces, where new paths are illuminated and dimensions are altered. He creates vast worlds within which the protagonists, that could be voluminous and linear forms, objects and their shadows, fall steadily into relational orbits as if dancing in slow motion. The exhibition sets the stage for newer spatial forms and material explorations that emerge as extensions to Samanta’s longstanding engagement with concepts of time and transition, the conundrums of human existence, and the spectrum of meaning from fragment to wholeness. The paintings, collages, and book- sculptures present a compelling intersection of internal and external landscapes, redefining the physical capacity of paper as a medium of translucence and fluidity.
