The exhibition was put together by the Visual Arts team of the Primary wing of The Khaitan School on 14th December 2024 in the school front lawn. The Articulate exhibition was a captivating exploration of contemporary visual arts, featuring works that delve into the creativity of young artists of the Primary wing and their unique styles of art and painting.
With numerous art pieces across a range of mediums, including painting and sculpture, this exhibition offered visitors a profound glimpse into the diverse ways in which young artists interpret the human experience and express themselves through different forms of art.
The startling and aesthetic display was a testimony to the students’ learning throughout this session. From Kathakali face painting to colour wheel to monument painting to black buck painting, the list of artworks goes on and the visitors could not stop admiring the stunning display.
With as much dedication the students prepared the paintings, they put in equal efforts for all the pottery pieces. Be it ‘pen stand with coiling technique’ or ‘2D wall hanging relief work’ or ‘hexagonal shape plate mural’, each piece was crafted with utmost precision and unique techniques.
The students worked with stoneware clay, black clay called terracotta, slab technique, drew compositions, used various moulds, etc for curating brilliant pottery sculptures.
The tile painting pieces and Ladakh mask using slab technique in ceramics were highly appreciated for their unparalleled depiction.
The exhibition received an overwhelmingly positive response from the visitors. They were particularly moved by the diversity of mediums used for curating the works on display. The interactive nature of the exhibition, particularly through coiling technique, slab technique, pinching, tile based art, such as mosaics, acrylic paint, traditional paint, etc were highlighted by the visitors as some of the most engaging aspects.
This exhibition proved that visual art is a vital space for dialogue and reflection. As the exhibition came to a close, it left an indelible mark on the audience and they could not stop enjoying the prepossessing display.
