Block your calendar, make your excuses at work, and get your tickets: this is a studio visit you don’t want to miss! AWM is delighted to facilitate a visit to renowned multidisciplinary artist Shakuntala Kulkarni’s studio space in Santacruz (W). We’re going to catch her latest series of five cane sculptures inspired by wedding fashion across India. Sign up to be the first to see these works in her studio space, with its walls covered in preparatory drawings and floor space taken up by these incredible sculptures. Limited spots available so get yours soon.
Shakuntala Kulkarni is a Bombay based, Karnataka born multidisciplinary artist who was trained at the Sir JJ School of Art, MSU Baroda, as well as Santiniketan under Somnath Hore. Originally trained in mural painting, Kulkarni’s work continued in the vein of addressing large audiences, but shifted from flat surfaces into sculpture, performance, and new media. Her work is primarily concerned with the plights of urban women who are held back by traditional patriarchal constraints, capturing the wounds and anxiety that come from those constraints in a vein similar to Hore.
