Artist: Baiju Parthan
In association with The Guild, Mumbai

Baiju Parthan’s art practice revolves around information technology and its impact on perception and meaning generation. His art explores how information streams alter our perception of reality and how new categories of experience clubbed under the generic term ‘virtual’ reshape our cherished ideas about the world. Technology in his work is primarily used as an ‘interactive space’, where each node is a choice that branches out into an exploration of fluid boundaries of meaning, that suggests the ever-present local within the global, and the human cogency within the computer network.
This program is organized in association with the Guild Art Gallery, Mumbai. Baiju Parthan will give an audio-visual presentation of his new media print show titled ‘VAPOUR’, which is scheduled to be held at the Guild Art Gallery in March 2005.
