You’ve just missed it — take it home anyway
The 2025–26 Biennale ended on 31 March 2026. The next is expected around December 2027. We made a book of all 72 exhibits, venue by venue, with the photographs — 76 pages, 9 MB.
Time leaves its traces in subtle but persistent ways: aging, dissolving, carving, and eroding objects. These transformations compel me to reconsider what sculpture can become.

About
Death Circle and Untitled present Krishna Murthy P S’s collective exploration of decay, history, and seasonal change—an inquiry shaped by natural materials and their inherently ephemeral existence.
Working with bat head root seeds, samara tree spines, wudfill, and soil, Krishna pays close attention to forms and textures, reimagining one natural element into the likeness of another. The scratches and marks that emerge arise from intimate engagement with material processes.
These works echo cycles of growth, dissolution, and return. Nothing is permanent—yet everything leaves traces.
