On the occasion of 'Art Bengaluru 2012', Sublime Galleria brings together two great artists, with different mediums and art-forms -Pallavi FoleyandVijit Pillaito present 'By the Lomok Moonlight' - Art Inspired by Jewellery.

Hailed as one ofIndia's best designers currently, Sublime Galleria is proud to present award-winning jewellery designer, Pallavi Foley's newest collection of wearable art, called 'By the Lomok Moonlight'. And to complement her unique award-winning designs is acclaimed artist, Vijit Pillai , who has worked in conjunction with Pallavi and taken inspiration from her designs and the ideas behind them to come up with artworks that are avant- garde in form and colour. Ms. Uzma Irfan - Founder of Sublime Galleriasaid, "We, at Sublime, aim to introduce varied and unexplored mediums of art with each new exhibition. With this show, it gives me great pleasure to present two such talented and

diverse artists who have worked in unison to seamlessly blend the art-forms of jewellery and fine arts and present both from a brand new perspective. This exhibition is a part of Art Bengaluru 2012 and we would like to invite participation from everyone to make this unique art festival a true success." "Travel has been my greatest source of inspiration, and this collection is inspired by the historical jewellery and traditions of the South-East Asian archipelago, where each motif and texture is rooted in reason. When I visualized this collection, it evoked a feeling of romance which I have expressed through the jewels, using pearls as the expression of moonlight, with motifs and textures which find their origins in history. I call it 'By the Lomok Moonlight'," addedMs. Pallavi Foley - renowned jewellery designer. Acclaimed artist, Vijit Pillaicommented on the collection, "My artworks have been inspired by Pallavi's exquisite jewellery and I have used textures, patterns and colours to create abstract forms that complement her designs. I have also used Buddha and Ganesha figures as backdrops in a few of the artworks to add a slight twist to the creations. To bring all these elements together and yet retain the original concept has been challenging, but enjoyable. My art is unpredictable, with inconclusive endings leaving a lot to the viewer's imagination - which is what makes it interactive and hopefully exciting!" The exhibition will be on at the Sublime Galleria in UB City during Art Bengaluru 2012 from10-24 Augustfrom11am to 8pm. About the exhibition The stylization of both the artists - Pallavi Foley & Vijit Pillai is modern and contemporary. The jewellery art pieces do take inspiration from historical jewellery pieces, yet are a modern and avant-garde version of the same. The digital art is a unique abstraction, where jewellery becomes the protagonist and each form, a new artistic expression. Pallavi's focus areas are the textures of the palm leaf and its abstractions, the simplistic hornbills, the leafy forms and sculptural tones with three-dimensional folds and curves, modern and layered.
