Have you ever been inside a pyramid that resonates with poetry? Or, do you know how it feels when you \u2018walk\u2019 through seawater?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Well, you don\u2019t have to visit Egypt or go deep into the sea for experiencing these rare moments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Artworks of 97 artists from 31 countries are exhibited in 12 venues at this three month long art extravaganza. Most of the exhibits are thought-provoking artworks that delve deep into the multiple realities of life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Themed, Forming in the pupil of an eye<\/em><\/strong>,<\/strong> the KMB 2016 criss-crosses various disciplines of artistic expressions like visual arts, poetry, music, theater, sculpture, etc. This edition is curated by eminent Indian contemporary artist, Sudharshan Shetty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are presenting before you a photo update of some of the art installations exhibited at Aspinwall House, Fort Kochi, the main venue of the Biennale.<\/p>\n\n\n
