The quirky, yet fascinating installations are part of artist Siddhartha Kararwal's collection. The exhibition is titled Paper Tiger and Other Tales and reflects the artist's imagination and perception of the world.

Kararwal seeks inspiration from elements that are simple yet creative, and thus children's toys and playthings are of interest to him.
