Real estate can be expensive in the city of Mumbai. This is as true of renters looking for a roof over their head, as it is for artists looking for some space in a gallery. The Space 118 Fine Arts Grant seeks to change this scenario. Curator and founder, Saloni Doshi explains, “As a non-profit organisation, we hope to bring to light the visions and perspectives of young and new artists by offering them a space to exhibit, and thereby, reach out to galleries in the city.”

Their ongoing show, The Future of Imagination, will conclude tomorrow with a showcase of 24 contemporary artists whose works represent a changing world expressed through a myriad of perspectives. “It is surprising how they have re-imagined form, style and even subjects through their art. From miniatures, to ideas of happiness and the future itself, there are some radical ideas on display,” Doshi remarks.

Curated over a period of seven months, the artists will also be part of a unique walkthrough of the space, interacting with viewers as they visit on the closing day. “We hope that it introduces to patrons a new generation of artists who deserve a space, and a platform for their expression,” Doshi concludes.
