Dwelling upon a post pandemic world, where people have experienced devastation and have a heightened sensitivity towards objects for urgent use, Khatra’s new series utilizes fire extinguishers as a metaphor for an agent that subsides rapid destruction. For him, artmaking is an urgent response to a time in despair.
“Oh how the world has changed,
Artificial intelligence now reigns,
Human made art, now so estranged.”
