Ishara Art Foundation looks behind the scenes of No Trespassing to discover the artistic processes and curatorial conversations that shaped the exhibition – and what the streets mean to each of the artists who brought it to life.
In this episode, Curator Priyanka Mehra speaks about how the curatorial concept evolved, breaking institutional norms and how each work brings a piece of the street into Ishara’s space.
This interview series is presented in the context of No Trespassing, running at Ishara Art Foundation from 4 July – 30 August 2025.
