Known for capturing small moments in ordinary life and expanding them into the extraordinary, in 'A Reverie of a Memory', Anilakumar Govindappa relives the moments of his distant and not so distant past spread across cities.

Anilakumar Govindappa is a recipient of several awards, including the South Indian Art Exhibition Chandra Ilango Jury Award (2013) and the HRD Young Artist Scholarship awarded by the Ministry of Culture (2012), he has been part of many workshops, residencies and group exhibitions.

Though not exclusively aligned with constructivism, through the colorful lens of his wild imagination, he tells an open-ended story, leaving much to the perception of the viewer in 'A Reverie of a Memory' 

Diving into universal topics of home, love, and attachment, Govindappa’s practice is one of observations, including in the landscape of life, acknowledgement of the political.

Govindappa's exhibition is the first of many that Method Juhu intends to host as it hopes to emphasise community engagement through regular workshops, artist discussions, and performances.

The Juhu gallery is the largest of Method's locations, spanning an expansive 1800 sq ft. With ample natural light and 12 ft high walls, the space provides an ideal setting for exhibitions and creative interactions.
