Lace plant

This Sunday, if you drop by the Special Project Space in Dr Bhau Daji Lad Museum, you'll come face to face with an ethereal 18-feet coral, made of lace and thread, suspended from the ceiling. This piece will vie for your attention with fragile skeletons of algae, seaweed, jellyfish, pressed flowers, leaves and seeds - all appearing as if they are levitating, unaffected by gravity, as they float in glass casks and bottles. These botanical and maritime 'specimens', invented and reconfigured from thread and wire, are the handiwork of Delhi-born artist Sumakshi Singh, who is in the city with her first solo, Leaving The Terrestrial: Its Own Kind Of Archive.
