History does not exist solely in archives or artifacts; it lingers in materials, memories and gestures, shaping the present in ways both visible and unseen. Latent Echoes explores these reverberations, sometimes subtle and sometimes impossible to ignore — the imprints of time that continue to inform contemporary artistic practices.
This exhibition is not about grand historical narratives, but about the quiet, often unnoticed forces that connect past and present. The artists featured in Latent Echoes engage with history as a living presence, drawing from personal and collective memory, inherited techniques and the materiality of indigo itself. Their works unfold across textiles, sculpture, painting and installation, each revealing the connection and tension between what is remembered and what fades, what is preserved and what is transformed. Each piece reimagines the depth, fluidity, and resonance of the colour Indigo, that is itself both a hue and a history, tracing its journey as a colour and as a chronicle.
In this exhibition, Indigo becomes both medium and metaphor — a vessel for forgotten stories, loss, resistance and renewal. Its journey across geographies and centuries is mirrored in the works on display, where tradition and experimentation converge, and where echoes of the past are reinterpreted through contemporary sensibilities.
Latent Echoes invites us to listen – to recognize the traces of history within the present. To acknowledge that the past is never truly past, but always waiting — latent, yet resonant — to be seen, heard, and reimagined.
