Catalogue of solo exhibition by Amit Ambalal at Sakshi Gallery, Mumbai and Gallery Maya, London in 2006. Gayatri Sinha wrote, 'Amit Ambalal's art of satiric inversions is complex and richly narrativist. Myth may provide some of the symbolic atmospherics, but the artist's language is persistently modern. From the standpoint of pungent social observation, he uses art as a vehicle of objective critique rather than subjective analysis. In this particular series, through his constant referent, the crow and the cuckoo, he sets up a mercurial dialogue between the lyrical and the raucous, the male and the female, the deceptive and the playful.' With artist biography.
