ORIGINS, Chakravarthi’s first solo painting exhibition is inspired by notes kept over two years of therapy. The deeply biographical works explore memory, culture-specific rituals and Yogas, indigenous Indian and Tantric practices as a tool to move away from form identity and towards the essence identity.
‘Based on evaluation notes kept throughout 2 years of Gestalt therapy, this series of paintings explore the many conscious and subconscious facets of selfhood. Many of the 96 journal entries contribute to the overall development these works, as well as to the specific themes of identity (lived, adopted and inherited), memory (including ancestral), trauma (CPTSD), spirituality and sexuality’
