What is a coffin doing in the middle of an art gallery? Or for that case, a mirror that almost becomes liquid and vibrates as vibration. Well, these two things are two of the many things that do not necessarily do not necessarily fit in clean categories as part of the newly inaugurated exhibition in Delhi, its inaugural exhibition in Delhi.

This is not to say that they do not have tasks that fit specific categories-pains, sculptures, installations as well as audio-visual works that are spread in the gallery located in the basement, but the voices are fresh and pushed the perspective borders. The method always stands for young and emerging voices, experiments and a kind of risk that is rarely seen in contemporary art.

For a fairly young art gallery – he recently turned five with two places in Mumbai – a bold step in itself to make a step in the art market in Delhi. Sahil Arora, the founder, method, shares that he was not looking to open a gallery in the capital, but the space forced him to do so. “We have very few places in Mumbai that works good for the exhibitions we have done. After saying this, we want to do so much, but cannot do because space is a limit. Here, we have the opportunity to do so, ”he says.

The method also takes its responsibility towards making a gallery which is durable and very seriously very serious. By that end, he is bound with a research and design lab reform dedicated to the creation of a permanent and healthy physical world. If the gallery walls expose and expose and expose a little, it is because they have been treated with bio-platteers and bio-values, which increase indoor air quality and improve the overall manufactured environment. Sahil says, “These options enabling artistic expression reflect our shared commitment to make places that prefer environmental welfare.”

The opening exhibition fresh production 2025 fits correctly in this creative location. An India art fair by art historian and archaeologist Enika Mann was cured as parallel, exhibition reflects the ethos of law to celebrate innovation and emerging talent. More than 30 artists – partially from an open call and some methods that have not yet entered the commercial market, are part of the exhibition. While many of them have not yet graduated from art schools, their strong and consistent art practice grabbed the jury’s eye, including Mann, Arora and Umah Jacob, Director, Outside Relations and Outreach at the Bharat Kala Fair.

While most of the artists are Indians, Bangladeshi artist Pulak Sarkar, Japanese artist Kito Sakuma and two Pakistani artists, Fatima Kalim and Libe Tanveer are also, – “We have a great victory to get our work because it is very difficult for us to perform Pakistani artists in India.”

Baroda-based Tito Stanley, whose self-portrait beautifies the coffin, is perhaps the most famous artist in the show. “There is a hard sales to bring a coffin to an exhibition for a commercial art gallery, but in the method, we want to traditionally encourage artists to go forward. Institutions like us will support their practice, ”she says.

The name and possibility of a medium, you will find it in the exhibition. In the audio-visual artwork of the Pulak government, the words associated with the Gaza crisis scroll on a screen, while Sehj Malik depicted a wall on one of the walls in a 12-hour durable performance. The sculpture piece of Tushar Wagela is an Ode for the flock mindset, even celebrating the work of Fatim Kalim and Payoja Agarwal. In more disturbing pieces, Ravi Morya’s artwork stands for depiction of domestic violence that is found in a worldly, everyday landscape. “When we talk about mediums, we have been very inclusive. In terms of voices, we have everything from political art and ecological art to feminist and male art.

Apart from art, the gallery also has music programming every weekend. Sahil said, “We want to present various art forms and do things that do not necessarily fit in an art gallery.”
