The first altar lays to rest all that which no longer serves us. It is an invitation to contemplate on what we have lost and what we have rid ourselves of. Be it friend or foe underneath the chadar, we come to pay our respects. Each corner is weighed down by a mir-e-farsh, which simultaneously translates to both master and slave of the carpet. It urges us to remember that which is important and not let our histories and lessons be blown away.
Wolf was founded by Ritu and Surya Singh to create inspiring environments and speak about much needed change. They use scrap, discards and found objects to construct fantastical narratives informed equally by history, mythology and ecology. Materials and materiality are central to their practice, which they look for in flea markets, scrapyards and family archives, allowing them to connect personal narratives to broader social concerns. Along with their artworks, they also create ephemeral, immersive environments and large scale installations.
