A recent exhibit was held by FAD International, Pune, which highlighted the hidden creativity of students. 

The four-day exhibition called ‘In my element’ featured an array of art works created by the students as part of their course, which was organised at the FAD Studio Space in Koregaon Park.

From unconventional interpretations of traditional subjects such as still-life, colour wheels, conceptual photography to innovative handmade prints and intricate plaster castings; the students explored and challenged the very fundamentals of art design and photography.

“The aim was to engage students from different artistic streams such as fine arts, art & design and photography, to share a common creative workspace for trans-disciplinary conversation. The result was a range of artistic styles from 25 students,” said Shivang Dhruv, founder-director, FAD International. 

The work on display moved from simple to deepest ideas of design and art. With their innate design sense, students were made to find symmetry and swirling patterns in and around their immediate environment.

Faculty for arts & design and photography at FAD, Meera George, said, “This exhibit serves to stimulate the interest of students in the theories of aesthetics, laws of design and its principles. Our aim was to bring various perceptions of art and design within their comprehension.” 

Sharing her achievements, Akshati Shah, who is a student, said, “This attempt has helped us to understand the basic concepts underlying art and design, and at a fundamental level how everything around us can be defined by design in its every possible variant.”

Another student, Pranali Oswal, who is pursuing one-year foundation course in art and design, said, “Through my work titled ‘Colour Discord’, I wanted to show the textures and creativity through crayon colours. It was a new idea and has not been attempted before.”

Student of fine arts, Harshal Agarwal, who displayed a portrait composition using all grades of graphite pencils, said, “With my art work themed ‘Grey Scales’, I wanted to show an independent woman and her inner feelings without showing the facial expression.”
