SHEELA GOWDA

SHEELA GOWDA (1957-)

Sheela Gowda’s art resides within a space between the local and the global. Her sculptural installations are comprised of such simple materials as cow dung and ash, but each piece is undeniably monumental in its scale and content. Her work reflects upon the passage of time, nuances of violence, the pain of grief – concepts universally shared and understood. Yet her use of specific and indigenous media, such as tar drums used as temporary homes by road workers, or Kumkum, a red dye used for body adornment, address local concerns and lends primacy to the subaltern and a consideration of reality

Sheela Gowda, born in 1957, trained as a painter at several art institutions in India, and in London. Her work has been included in several curated shows, including How Latitudes Become Forms at the Walker Art Center (Minneapolis 2003) and Traditions/Tensions: Contemporary Art in Asia (Asia Society, New York, 1996). Upcoming projects include Documenta XII in Kassel, Germany in 2007. The artist currently lives and works in Bangalore, India
