Monali Meher 1969
Lives in Amsterdam (NL). Works in Amsterdam (NL).
Represented by:
Lumen Travo Galerie
Monali Meher her artistic performances, installations, objects, photographs and videos witness her quest for defining the body as a trouble spot of time and space’s connections or mutual extensions. Beyond this quest, Monali Meher draws an ontological thought, time influencing human essence and evolution. It's a necessity for her to use her body, voice and emotions in the space with the immediacy of environmental, social and political aspects. Her performances are atmospheric, sometimes ritualistic and frequently involve props of various natures. They show the cyclical circles of destruction and renewal, as well as formal and conceptual ideas within the framework of personal references that inform the fragile divide between her life and art.

KHOJ LIVE : You Are In My Territory - Monali Meher @ Palette Art Gallery
Shows
Market position
Mixed-media artist Monali Meher (works and lives between the Netherlands and India) started her career by introspecting cultural shifts through a series of performances in which body and gender play an important role. For example, she presented at the Tate Modern in London, in 2006, her performance called Between the Familiar/ Unfamiliar, the Home and Heart, Beats a Golden Kiss. Monali Meher has been largely participating to international events like, recently, the Live Art Festival in Glasgow (Scotland), the International Performance Festival in Beijing (China), or the Biennale of Sinop (Turkey). For her solo show at Lumen Travo gallery, Monali Meher takes a turn and proposes a thought about the notion of time, as underlined in the title ‘Departed, Assembled, Wrapped, Captured: Time’. Through a selection of recent and past artworks, the artist points out her exploration into the physicality of time, the way she embodies it, catches it, makes it being visible, manipulates its past and present energy.
