Shetty, whose work has been exhibited all over the world including the Tate Modern in London and New York's Guggenheim Museum among others is showing in Delhi after a gap of 10 years.
Created especially for GallerySke, the Bangalore-based gallery which opened a new space in the city very recently, Shetty displays wooden sculptures, several mixed-media pieces and one video, placed at the entrance of the show titled "Every broken Moment, Piece by Piece."
The video, is the first that the artist says he shot live. It is a triptych of the same image shot in three sequences in three spaces. When the musician plays tea cups placed on a table vibrate and eventually fall down and break.
"It has been shot in a chawl in Mumbai which is soon going to be razed down. It is similar to the one in which i grew up and it represents personal connections. It represents to me old Bombay which is fast changing," says the artist who lives and works out of Mumbai.
His recent show features works that are smaller in scale but according to him is no less spectacular. "I like to use things which one may be familiar with yet kind of find a way to make them spectacular," says Shetty.
