The Brown Age – Bandana Jain, Ahmedabad

When

December 20, 2022 - December 24, 2022
11:00 am - 7:00 pm

The Brown Age is a conundrum of shrunk lives using discarded corrugated boxes.
Displaying these cardboard sculptures, the artist reimagines the environment, humanity
and recycles mass-produced cartons into unique, one-of-their-kind artworks.
These works seek to mirror a new era through the digital revolution, where brown
packaging became a part of almost everything we consume and create. For Bandana, her
love for the concept of sustainability is evident in the choice of her unconventional
medium. By compiling discarded boxes and giving them a new lease of life through upcycling and the prism of art, she advocates that the wheels of time are turning again.
After the time periods of the Stone Age, Copper Age and Iron Age, once again heralding a
new era for good and for bad – Bandana calls it The Brown Age.
The show is an extension of Bandana’s usual body of work in an elaborate and
experimental way, where she merges functionality into her creations, along with design
and thoughtfulness.
