Dhi Artspace in Hyderabad is hosting a posthumous solo exhibition titled 'A Biography of the Everyday' to honor the late artist Srinivas Bobbili. The show features 150 of his mixed-media works, highlighting his dedication to capturing the nuances of ordinary life and labor.
Why it matters
The exhibition serves as a significant cultural tribute to an artist's legacy while providing essential support to his surviving family through the promotion of his extensive body of work.
Dhi Artspace on Shyam Karan Road, Ameerpet, Hyderabad, becomes a space for remembrance as friends, family and artists gather to celebrate the life and work of late artist Srinivas Bobbili at the launch of A Biography of the Everyday. The solo show, inaugurated on August 18 to mark Srinivas’ posthumous birthday, features his mixed-media sketches and canvases, reflecting his engagement with ordinary lives, labour, memory and the quiet rhythms of daily existence. “There’s an artist in him whom I wanted to pay tribute to,” says founder Bhargavi Gundala.
The curatorial note describes Srinivas as an artist who could “reveal the extraordinary within the everyday.” Around 150 works — drawings, ink and crayon sketches, and canvases — bring together his practice and invite art lovers to encounter an artist who found meaning in what often goes unnoticed.
