Vida Heydari Contemporary is excited to present Terraform, artist M. Pravats new solo exhibition with a series of artworks that have been presented for the first time in New Delhi.

Oil, Canvas, Fired Bricks, Cut Slate, Concrete Board, Metal, LED Light Strip, Teak Wood 127 x 279.5 x 10 cm (50 x 110 x 4 in) Diptych

By bringing together a diverse range of materials-bricks, stone, pigment, dust, paintings, LED lights, and found objects-Pravat presents a body of work that probes into the interrelationships, recesses, and tensions between our built urban environment, and the natural world.

His sculptures and installations, which appear as fragmented reminders of the urban landscape, evoke a sense of being under perpetual construction-a limbo of incomplete transformation that has increasingly become characteristic of all metropolitan cities today. Each artwork, with its detailedly laid out network of materials, serves as a cartographic guide to a world that is now replete with relentless geo-engineering, large-scale development projects, and climate emergency.

M. Pravat’s ‘Terraform’ is an invitation to reflect upon a crisis that also extends into the larger biodiversity on our planet. It is an attempt to recentre our sensibilities, and actions to ensure a sustainable future for us all.

The exhibition will preview on Saturday, 18 January 2025, from 5:30 to 8:30 PM at STIR Gallery, Delhi – 2, North Drive, DLF, Chattarpur Farms. It will run through 25 January 2025. The artist will be present at the exhibition preview.

About The Artist

M. Pravat was born in 1972 in Kolkata, India. He completed his Bachelor’s degree in painting in 2002 and his Master’s in 2004, both granted by the Faculty of Fine Arts at M.S. University, Baroda. M. Pravat’s art practice examines architectural forms and materials through a fractured lens, using sculpture, installations, paintings and photography. He believes that our lives are unquestionably shaped by the built environments we inhabit. Along with images and materials, architecture plays a pivotal role in the formation of our sensibilities, and in shaping our experiences and understanding of space and form. His practice is deeply embedded in the manifestations and imaginations of architectural spaces, where he attempts to shed the representational familiarity associated with our built environments, and in doing so, finds himself appropriating, redistributing, and reconfiguring the relationship between material, architecture and environment.

Over the years, his works have been presented in solo and group exhibitions, biennales and art fairs in Colombo, Delhi, Dubai, Mumbai, New York, Seoul and Zurich. His recent solo exhibitions include “From Debris, We Rise” presented by VHC at Bungalow Eight (2024); “Liquid States” at 1×1 Gallery, Dubai (2017); “From Today, I Have No Future” at Aicon Gallery, New York (2017); and “Blue Print” at Nature Morte, Delhi (2011). He is a member of the Layout collective along with artists Navid Tschopp, Susanta Mondal, and architect S. Boka. Their projects have been exhibited in the Kochi – Muziris Biennale, 2012, Kiran Nadar Museum of Art, 2013, INSERT, 2014, the Colombo Biennale, 2014, and in non-institutional sites in Delhi and Zurich. He was a recipient of the Pro Helvetia artist residency in Switzerland.

M. Pravat lives and works in New Delhi, India.

The rising demand for luxury homes in Delhi-NCR has sparked the search for new ideal locations that offer a blend of convenience, modern amenities, and upscale living. As buyers increasingly seek well-connected and thoughtfully planned neighborhoods, the spotlight shifts toward emerging areas that promise unparalleled value and lifestyle benefits. Amidst this search, Siddharth Vihar in Ghaziabad is rapidly carving a niche as the new address for premium luxury living. With its strategic location and high-end residential developments, Siddharth Vihar is gaining recognition as a promising luxury hotspot in NCR.

Siddharth Vihar: The New Address for Premium Luxury Living in NCR

Positioned along the NH-24 and seamlessly connected to the Delhi-Meerut Expressway, Siddharth Vihar offers the perfect balance of urban accessibility and tranquil surroundings. One of its most compelling features is exceptional connectivity that ensures seamless access to key NCR cities such as Delhi, Noida, and Greater Noida. Further, the proposed RRTS elevates Siddharth Vihar’s convenience quotient. Starting from Siddharth Vihar in Ghaziabad, the line will extend to Greater Noida West, Alpha One, and Noida International Airport. Once operational, the metro connectivity will drastically improve the city’s accessibility to major hubs, making the area even more attractive to homebuyers seeking efficient public transportation options.

Over the last couple of years, Ghaziabad has seen significant launches in the luxury housing segment. According to a report by PropEquity, between 2019 and September 2024, Ghaziabad witnessed a new supply jump by 14% and a capital appreciation of 139% from Rs. 3691 per sq. ft. to Rs.8823 per sq. ft. This pricing advantage allows homebuyers to access premium luxury residences without the hefty price tags often associated with traditional luxury markets, making Siddharth Vihar an attractive proposition for luxury living. Moreover, when compared to other parts of NCR, Siddharth Vihar is fast catching up with the interest of investors and end-users for luxury homes. Additionally, the upcoming Noida International Airport is set to be a massive boost for real estate demand in surrounding areas. Thus, with the area witnessing rapid appreciation over the past few years, investors can expect substantial capital gains in the future.

Besides, the residential landscape in Siddharth Vihar showcases a blend of modern architecture, sustainable designs, and premium amenities. Developers are focusing on creating world-class homes that offer spacious layouts, contemporary designs, and eco-friendly features. Among the standout developments is Prateek Grand Begonia, the latest offering from the renowned Prateek Group.

It features thoughtfully curated theme-based design, combining colonial architecture with grand arches, elegant sculptures, and lush green landscapes. Positioned along the NH-24 corridor, this development promises an unmatched lifestyle experience for residents while offering immense potential for long-term appreciation.

Siddharth Vihar is enriched with social infrastructure, offering an excellent mix of educational, healthcare, and recreational facilities. The area is home to reputed schools that cater to families looking for quality education for their children. World-class healthcare facilities are within close reach, ensuring easy access to medical care.

Siddharth Vihar’s rapid transformation into a luxury living hub is driven by exceptional connectivity, well-planned infrastructure, and a surge in luxury housing projects. Due to its strategic positioning and upcoming infrastructure projects, it promises to continue its trajectory of growth, with further appreciation in property values expected. This offers a unique opportunity for investors and homebuyers to secure a foothold in one of NCRs most sought-after regions for luxury real estate.
