Catalogue published in conjunction with the exhibition 'Objective Voice' by George Martin P.J., held at Vadehra Art Gallery, New Delhi in October 2009. The exhibition brings together drawings on paper and a collection of seven installations comprising of sculpture works, neon and light emitting diodes. 'Martin has always ventured towards new mediums and possibilities. This body of work aims at deciphering certain assumptions about the visual language that is executed and ameliorated constantly by the artist. The assemblages look back at a reservoir of memories and images. Working with materials like vinyl, fiberglass, light, silicon and aluminum, Martin is interested in creating visual poetry. The images or forms that construe each work are quotidian in nature; like the airplane, the skull or the chicken. All of these are visual phrases feed the optic sphere of knowledge regularly in the media or otherwise. George Martin maneuvers the same images to stimulate new expressions and evoke a magical reality.' (Press release)
