A Different Order is a two person exhibition and gallery talk that traces two different constructs of utopia as seen in India– the Western modernist city of Chandigarh built in the 1950s under Le Corbusier, and the Maha Kumbh Mela in Allahabad which takes place every 12 years and can involve up to 40 million pilgrims. This sculptural, filmic, and photographic exhibition by Nandita Raman and Kay Walkowiak explores the concepts of failed utopia and the yearning for one.
