Structure & Drift brings together three artists whose practices examine the dynamic relationship between order and movement — between the systems that shape civilization and the forces that continually unsettle it.
Structure gives form: architecture, geometry, language, cultural frameworks. Drift introduces motion: migration, ecological change, memory, and lived experience. Rather than existing in opposition, these conditions operate simultaneously — each reshaping the other.
In the works of Manohar Lal, geometric precision and fractal principles construct architectonic compositions that draw from both decorative traditions and natural systems. His measured frameworks suggest stability, yet they carry within them an organic rhythm — revealing that even the most disciplined structures are alive.
Prasanta Ghosh explores the invisible architectures that govern human experience — spatial, psychological, and social. His works reflect on containment and expansion, probing how environments and conceptual systems define, protect, and at times constrain us.
Through layered drawings and mixed media works, Jayeti Bhattacharya traces movement across territories — mapping migration, ecological fragility, and the shifting nature of belonging. Her visual language suggests that permanence is always provisional.
Together, the exhibition proposes that structure is never static, and drift is never chaotic. Culture evolves in the tension between the two — where geometry meets memory, architecture absorbs movement, and systems bend under lived reality
