Sikander: The Shape of Balance

  • Free
  • Art

This exhibition features abstract marble sculptures by Indian artist A Sikander, whose practice reimagines traditional craftsmanship through a contemporary lens.

Carved in black and white marble, Sikander's works explore themes of duality – light and shadow, masculine and feminine, permanence and change – drawing from India’s rich multicultural and spiritual heritage.

Sikander’s minimalist forms are deeply symbolic, evoking eternal ideas through modern appeal. His sculptures invite quiet reflection on interconnectedness, spiritual transformation, and the space where opposites meet.
