At the cost of sounding clichéd & repetitive, about time we dealt with this problem isn’t it? And it’s not about pointing finger or naming names, it’s about a problem we’re all grappling with all the time, we need to combine forces to deal with it.

Ink Talks recently featured a conversation about AI-generated art, a subject which has managed to generate quite a buzz thanks to the sale of Edmond de Belamy, from La Famille de Belamy (2018), which fetched a whopping $432,500 at a Christie’s auction. When I heard the news, I was mortified and thought perhaps my logic was flawed, maybe my antiquated thinking was not aligned with today’s reality.

‘The world is full of brilliant people, some who shine bright & others that bask in reflected glory’ ~ rehashing Frost’s ‘The world is full of willing people; some willing to work, and the rest willing to let them’.

If there is one element that can change the look of a space from drab to fab it has to be art. And when it is folk art it also adds a dimension of going back to your roots and probably therein lies its inherent charm.

As I entered the passage in the Taj West End that would take me to the corridor where the group show “Turn of the Tide” was displayed, I was greeted by a large portrait of an aqua-blue bottle of Bombay Sapphire Distilled London Dry Gin.

Who has seen Gandhi? Not most of those who turned up for the exhibition on this great man that opened on Gandhi Jayanti. For all of us then, our knowledge of the Mahatma has been formed by books, films of different genres, news reports, photographs and biographies.
