Bhartir Kher @ Arnolfini, Bristol

Bharti Kher’s exhibition includes delicate mixed media drawings, as well as complex and textured bindi drawings, and a new, large-scale, site-specific version of Virus; conceived and executed annually as a 30-year on-site project using bindi drawings and text.

Alongside these the artist presents sculptures and installations, interwoven with a rich mix of materials, resonant with cultural and political meaning.  An exploration of her visual language forms the focus of her exhibition, offering an intimate portal into Kher’s world in which drawing, sculpture and installation intertwine, straddling two cultures but speaking one visual language.
