Gunjan Gupta

The soul of things and tools I have seen the work of Gunjan Gupta since a long time before: I have seen it in the streets of the world, in the home of the brave, the people that resist the harshness of life by handling the simplest tools and things with the same care you take for a child: because tools and things have a soul exactly like we humans. Gunjan knows a lot about this soul and her art is able to reveal it to everybody, the distracted visitors of exhibitions or the focussed observer in search of a – however small – revelation of significance in the creation of new tools: perhaps intellectual, sometimes ironic, always pitiful for humanity, her art works are the consolation for those ones, as me, still believe in the utopia of a new universe of things that can help us on the long and difficult paths of life.
