| "Skyfold" by Neha Choksi (cyanograms) |
INDIA---New Jersey-native
Neha Choksi's "Sky Fold" is a series of photographic cyanograms made this year during the production of the video "Iceboat" in February 2012, as described in
Mumbai Boss. In Iceboat the artist sets herself to row a boat of ice until the boat melts and releases her into the waters. The ultimate melting and floundering is a real experience of loss made vivid in a staged and measured way. We know it will melt away; lighten and relieve in 'an affirmative act of destruction', and in gravity. Born in U.S., Ms. Choksi moved to Mumbai at the age of 4 but returned to attend the University of California, Los Angeles, as an undergraduate and later Columbia University in New York for a master’s degree.
