A prolific and pioneering sculptor, Latika Katt (1948-2025) worked across bronze, terracotta, stone and plaster. Katt’s early fame rested on her portrait busts of key figures of newly independent India, while her later practice shifted towards organic textures, ecological forms and Varanasi, her lifelong home, capturing the simultaneity of life and death in the ancient city.

Radhika Agarwala (b. 1985) is a multidisciplinary artist whose practice examines the Anthropocene through interspecies relationships and ecological transformation. Working across paper, brass, and found natural elements, her sculptures function as trans-historical artefacts, connecting memories
of human–nature interactions with disappearing species, ecosystems, and landscapes, as they imagine forms of co-inhabitation amid volatile climate realities.

Poojan Gupta (b. 1998) transforms discarded pharmaceutical blister packs into sculptural installations, treating them as symbols and archives of healing.
Fragility and permanence converge materially and metaphorically in these works, lending density to gestures of healing and its methodologies. A
critique of the vast quantities of waste generated by modern medicine is also implied in them, connecting individual processes of recovery to broader
environmental concerns.
