About The Event

Emerging from the book ๐™‚๐™–๐™ฃ๐™™๐™๐™žโ€™๐™จ ๐™‹๐™ก๐™–๐™˜๐™š๐™จ edited by Neelkanth Chhaya, Tridip Suhrud and Riyaz Tayyibji, published by the Sabarmati Ashram Preservation and Memorial Trust, this exhibition focuses on the architecture of M.K. Gandhiโ€™s ashrams in Ahmedabad and Wardha as sites for the development of some of his most important ideas.

The architectures of Gandhiโ€™s ashrams are seen in continuation with his deep engagement and experiments with material (and their making) as part of his experiments with truth. During this time, M.K.Gandhi is also constantly inhabiting the much larger geography of this country to be at home in it. Here we also look at other key places where M.K. Gandhi resided, the houses of his youth and sites of his incarceration, for the insight they give us into his ways of inhabiting places
