Zodiac - a confluence of East and West




From time immemorial the stars have been deemed to play a role on our lives here on earth. This has given expression to whole schools of predictive science and astrology in the west and east - and image systems like the zodiac associated with them. Interestingly the zodiac signs have evolved over time to represent changing societies and beliefs. Today they are interpreted in a number of ways - purely as fun, as in kids playing around with Linda Goodman's sunsigns; in more serious ways, as in the casting of horoscopes in places like India; as a means of living with forms like feng shui.

Taking a part playful, part serious look at the phenomenon, Parvathi Nayar has painted two sets of 12 paintings on the western zodiac.

In the first show, “Zodiac - a confluence of East and West ” at Art Seasons Gallery from 31st March to 10th May 2003. she collaborates with Cultural medallion winner, calligraphy maestro Tan Siah Kwee who does calligraphy renderings of the Chinese Zodiac.

Here Siah Kwee who spells out the Chinese Zodiac with his calligraphy and Parvathi who explores the Western Zodiac through her well-collected signature-style of colour, texture and multi-layered imagery delve into the personal and universal. Ancient arts of divination and contemporary takes on character readings, if you like, find a new paradigm in which to co-exist. In May/June Parvathi collaborates with young digital photographer Jason to present another zodiac collaboration at the Utterly Art gallery.
