Alag is artist Tarika Sabherwal’s first solo exhibition at Season Aoteaora.
The title itself has a double meaning, by which it can be read as either alāg, as in the Hindi word for separate, apart, parted, or different; or a lag, as in a lag in communication or a glitch in some sort of system.
The images are drawn from Hindi iconography, continuing a theme in Sabherwal’s practice of exploring and reimagining well-known motifs, as seen in paintings of horses and felines, for example.
The works show a continuation of a side of Sabherwal’s practice which uses an airbrush tool to paint onto raw canvas, creating a dyed effect and bold contrast.
Sofia had a kōrero with Tarika about her practice and Alag.
