Art Musings next exhibition Beloved features Shilo Shiv Suleman. Shilo is a visual artist with a focus on the intersection of magical realism, art for social change and technology. In recent years, she’s been engaging with biofeedback technology and the interaction between the body and art. Beloved is an exploration of Nature, Intimacy and Technology. The exhibition consists of works in several mediums, including gold-leaf encrusted wood-cut murals and watercolour paintings. The central piece of the exhibition is Brindavan, an interactive installation that uses breath to create a meditative and immersive experience. Says Shilo “When one falls in love, our relationship with nature is intensified. And Nature responds too, the wind caresses, the waves rise and fall and lap up against the shore; we are brushed by leaves and cradled by the earth. Through Beloved, I explore the hypothesis that perhaps the greater longing is to be united not just with the beloved, but with nature itself. In my explorations with Nature, Intimacy and the Body, I work with biofeedback technology to create interactive installations.”
