Surveillance of Nature – An Art Installation by Sunayana Guhesh
Sunayana Guhesh’s art installation, Surveillance of Nature, captivated audiences, transporting them into a world where the unseen gaze of nature comes to life. Inspired by her experiences growing up in a school nestled within a vast, 100-acre forest, Sunayana brought her unique vision to this stunning exhibit. Her installation brilliantly captured the delicate and often unseen interplay between humans and the natural world.
The centerpiece of the exhibit—a figure of a monkey perched on a branch—left a lasting impression on all who visited. This monkey, representing the “CCTV” of the forest, symbolized the watchful, timeless observation of nature, contrasting subtly yet powerfully with the modern surveillance technologies of our time. Sunayana’s work struck a chord with attendees, reminding us of the ever-present eyes of the natural world, constantly observing and bearing witness to humanity’s actions.
Attendees were left with a deeper appreciation for the environment and its delicate balance with civilization. The thought-provoking installation was met with awe and admiration, leaving visitors inspired to reflect on their own relationship with nature and its preservation. Surveillance of Nature was truly a memorable experience, sparking conversations that will resonate long after the exhibit’s end.
