Chatterjee & Lal gallery is showcasing sculptor-turned-artist Kiran Subbaiah's video Narcissicon, which is a 43-minute video based on daydreaming
A series of random happenings at a house in the city — an intruder coming in a house and leaving in a body bag, a person being monitored and in turn being monitored on camera by someone else, and a brawl — are some of the images that dominate Narcissicon, a 43-minute video by artist Kiran Subbaiah, at Chatterjee & Lal gallery.
On the surface, the images seem random and are perhaps part of a person’s daydream. At the same time, it is also a satirical comment on the society and how it views the artist and how he observes the world at large.
