#JaipurArtWeek 2024, Shilo Shiv Suleman’s ‘SHANKHA’ (2023), stands proud in the Govardhan Nath Ji Temple in #HawaMahal (Palace of the Winds). This larger than life brass cowrie shell represents India and the world while standing as a symbol for unabashed sapphic earth feminine.

#JaipurArtWeek 2024, Ayushi Patni’s ‘Altered and Altered States’ at Albert Hall Museum explores what it means to engage with a landscape and be transformed by it. Referencing Jaipur, the works invite you to explore the city’s strong emotive, historic and aesthetic foundations.

@Mess68G Phew!!! There was a car at Walnut Cottage last week that was so fancy it was tucked up in a car blanket every night! Did make me laugh coming home to that after working late.

[Emma Sumner @emmasumnerart]

Is it bad that each time I come home and there is another brand new shiny car in the holiday let next door I get annoyed! It’s not the holiday makers, just the cars! 🚗
