Method Delhi is presenting 'Slow Rot', a group exhibition featuring ten contemporary Indian artists whose works explore human fragility, psychological unrest, and the grotesque. The show runs from May 9 to July 3, 2026, at Method's New Delhi space in Defence Colony, with free entry. Participating artists include Aditya Dhabhai, Dhruvi Jain, M. Imran Ahamed, Milan Sharma, Mitali Das, Priyesh T., Revant Dasgupta, Riya Chandwani, Sajid Wajid Shaikh, and Tithi Das, working across painting, sculpture, and mixed media.
The exhibition matters because it uses the artistic mode of the grotesque not as spectacle but as a means to confront contemporary social anxieties and emotional unease, reflecting a society marked by anxiety and dissatisfaction. By framing individual trauma as a mirror of wider social conditions, 'Slow Rot' encourages viewers to engage with hidden psychological realities, offering a space for authenticity and personal truth in an uncertain world. It also highlights Method's role as a platform for emerging and experimental practices in India's contemporary art scene.
