Sridhar Gangolli
bangaloREsident-Expanded@whiteBOX
From early childhood days, his interest towards drawing and painting led visual artist Sridhar Gangolli to go through traditional sculpture, followed by British academic studies and history of art and theories. He became active in performance / live art as he realised that the medium of painting was not enough to express his thoughts and concerns on issues like the existing social system, inequality and present living conditions.
Since 2012 Gangolli has created various performances in public space, as well as installations and exhibitions in Bangalore and Delhi. His works were among others, part of the Kochi-Muziris Students' Biennale 2014/2015 and the Kolkata International Performance Festival 2013.
During his residency at WhiteBOX, Munich, Sridhar Gangolli created a performance that tried to express the greediness of consuming more than necessary or required.
