Zooming into the Land

Workshop facilitated by Rahul Juneja

Part of Purvaee - Evoking Pedagogic Lineages

Date: 1 Feb 25

Time: 2.00pm - 4.00pm 

Venue: KNMA Noida

This workshop will delve deeper into the legacy of Mrinalini Mukherjee, taking inspiration from her drawings of various flora displayed within the exhibition. Participants will trace Mukharjee’s aesthetic choices, and how she sees landscape different from her peers and mentors, thinking of the historical and contemporary importance of drawing and outdoor exploration. The workshop will culminate in an outdoor drawing/painting session, where the participants will try to make their own landscapes inspired by Mukherjee’s stylistic tendencies, and reflect on the differences of time, context and aesthetics.

All materials will be provided by the Museum.
