However, it is with ‘The New Way of Kashkol’ (wood, stainless steel and brass) that Mr Faraz impresses the most. The political content in the artwork is more than apparent with bullets dropping into a bowl. But it is the aesthetic element that the artist has been so wonderfully able to gel with the concept that doubles the charm of the artwork. Despite the directness of the theme there is nice artistic suggestibility to the exhibit. It is always pleasing to the eye.
‘Armytoon’ (plastic, rubber, mounted on canvas and board) takes the exhibition to a level where satire becomes more pronounced and the viewer finds it difficult whether to prefer form to content or content to form.
The exhibition will be open till March 1.
