Art of coming together

The art event, MOSAIC, which will be held in Fort Kochi this weekend brings together artists practising in different mediums for a wholesome experience

KOCHI: With the city gearing up to host gatherings and in-person events after a long hiatus, there seems to be much to look forward to in Kochi’s social calender. This weekend, David Hall in Fort Kochi is all set to play host to an art event christened MOSAIC. Organised by Kochi-based art management firm Evigart, the event attempts promote the little known but ancient art practice of putting together small pieces of coloured ceramic or glass to create a pattern or image. The two-day programme will see a confluence of artists coming together to conduct workshops, open music jam sessions and dance night.

“The idea of organising the event came to us when we realised that many artists were struggling to find a platform to showcase their talent. Apart from that, we also wanted to promote various art forms,” said Steve Edward Correya, one of the organisers of MOSAIC. “Various artists practising in different styles and mediums will be participating in the event to build a whole community of artists. We are planning to organise more such exhibition once in three months,” he added.
