The Mystical Kolam
Shanthi Sridharan is an artist from Chennai with a particular focus on the great Indian art of Kolam and Rangoli.Kolam is a design philosophy based on connecting the dots with lines and curves to create infinite design patterns. The Kolam patterns are a rich source of figure  language which serves as a stimulus for creation of new types of languages to communicate. These drawings cannot be preserved. They get walked on, washed out or blown by the wind; one has to let go and new ones are made. This infinity and detachment creates an unmatched mystic only paralleled to the aura associated with the existence of the universe.Shanthi will speak about this unique form of philosophy and art.
