These artworks were a part of Anant's installation at Modus Operandi II at Chemould Prescott Road; from which we bring to Architectural Digest Design Show 2019, three copper sculptures - decaying, morphing, and taking organic obelisk forms.
To the artist, these obelisks commemorate the shame of contemporary times that resemble a melted/extinguished candle or a middle finger or a bonsai plant or a phallus. These are neither trophies nor souvenirs; however, the toy sculptures act as reminders of the interesting times we continue to live in.
