Catalogue of solo exhibition by Jyothi Basu at Nature Morte, New Delhi in 2006. Peter Nagy wrote, 'Jyothi Basu's other-worldly landscapes are built of architectonic ciphers that mimic the forms of both nature (plants, animal, spores) and culture (writing, figuration, decoration). The things that most closely resemble buildings accommodate multiple pedigrees: Hindu, Buddhist, Muslim and Christian. His planet is composed of a linguistic superstructure (signs, symbol, letters and icons) that pulses with meaning and life.' Artist biography is provided in the present catalogue.
