鶹ý Painting Instructor Sandeep Mukherjee will show a version of his 2015 piece “Mutual Entanglements” at VOLTA NY, an invitational art fair of solo artist projects, in March. Since 2008, Volta NY has been showcase of contemporary art from international artists in a “rigorously curated boutique event, accessible to younger art-lovers and seasoned collectors alike,” according to its mission. “Mutual Entanglements” is large-scale site-sensitive work on duralene, which is comprised of ten panels, each seven feet tall and five feet wide. Mukherjee says he “paints layers of acrylic repeatedly using diverse prosthetics ranging from brushes, concrete brooms, rollers, spray bottles, and sometimes household cleaning products to rupture the surface.” The first iteration of “Mutual Entanglements” was installed at Chimento Gallery in Los Angeles in 2015 in a single linear arrangement across a wall built for the piece. The second iteration, “Mutual Reentanglement,” was installed around a large doorway at the Glendale College Gallery in 2016. This changed the viewing experience from one distanced by space to one that invited viewers to enter into the piece and be embodied by its architecture. This third iteration “Mutual Reentanglement 2” will be installed at VOLTA New York, 2017. This installation will be even more different than the first two as part of the wall around the piece will be painted black to create the illusion of three dimensional space. Unique to previous installations, this iteration will have overlapping, related panels that form a cohesive, geometric shape inside the space.
