Video art isn't for everyone, or so we were made to think. It's also what artist and curator Bharati Kapadia discovered when she experimented with the medium herself. "It was for a group show at a gallery and the theme was 'text'. Initially I explored audio and then thought the video medium suited it best," she adds. She wanted to know what video artists in India were doing, so began looking them up. "I found none except on private and gallery websites. There were no archives," says the Mumbai-based Kapadia.
