Accompanying Prabhavathi Meppayil’s 2022 solo exhibition with Pace in New York, this book reflects the gestural subtleties of the artist’s abstract paintings, sculptures, and installations in its typography and design.
Featuring semitransparent and colored paper, the publication situates text and images of Meppayil’s work within a modernist grid, enacting a sense of balance and harmony that is central to the artist’s compositions.
