Bridges catalogue

This work can best be described in the words of Tim Scott: “abstract sculpture attempts...to found itself on inspired insights into the actual physicality of real subjects, however disparate and varied their origins, and to then remould such insights into fresh three dimensional form conditioned by the processes of making.” These pieces are part of a series of site-oriented works I made at my Kolkata studio. My studio was a haven of sorts, a derelict old building with trees growing on it, and inside it, in the middle of Chowringhee Road, the commercial and business heart of the city. These nostalgic images are of pieces inspired by the site. They capture the essence of the work and became the work rather than the physical pieces themselves. ‘ NIDHI JALAN
